Where ideas move forward.

Helping ideas grow through consultancy, collaboration, and the creation of fresh entertainment experiences.

Next Phase Entertainment is a lean, senior-led consultancy and creative partner for businesses working in, or around, entertainment.

Founded by Steve Caswell, we bring over 20 years of experience across live entertainment, attractions, hospitality and entrepreneurial ventures.

We work with operators, brands and teams to turn ideas into structured, deliverable and commercially sound entertainment experiences.

We’ve had the opportunity to work with a range of respected brands and operators across the industry.

No unnecessary layers. No inflated overheads. Just experienced thinking and hands-on delivery.

Three ways we support businesses at different stages of their journey.

Consultancy

We provide clear, practical support to strengthen entertainment offers and operations. We review performance, refine structure, support leadership teams and identify ways to improve quality, efficiency and commercial return.

Grounded, honest and focused on what actually works.

Collaboration

We work alongside internal teams and partners to bring ideas to life and keep projects moving. We bridge creative and operational teams, support delivery and provide experienced guidance when key decisions need extra clarity.

Flexible, supportive and built around how you work.

Creation

We develop and deliver fresh entertainment concepts, experiences and programmes. From early ideas to execution, we create entertainment that fits the audience, environment and commercial model, and stays practical to deliver.

Creative thinking backed by real-world delivery experience.
