Throughout his childhood, Eamon felt like there was something "different" about him, something that he felt couldn't fully be explored or talked about. But once Eamon witnessed Bille Brown's rendition of Oscar Wilde in 'The Judas Kiss', his interest in the creative industry opened up a realm of possibility for him. Eamon has since worked as a director, actor, writer and dramaturg for Belvoir, Melbourne Theatre Company, Malthouse Theatre, Bell Shakespeare’s Mind’s Eye, Perth International Arts Festival, Darwin Festival, Playwriting Australia and various other companies. His production of 'Counting & Cracking' won seven Helpmann Awards in 2019, including Best New Australian Work, Best Production of a Play and Best Direction of a Play.
