About me
I am a Theatre Director, based in London and working nationally. I trained in Theatre, Film and Television at the University of Bristol, including study at the College-Conservatory of Music (CCM), USA.My work covers a wide range, including musicals and plays. I have been involved with the development of numerous new musicals and plays and I'm also interested in reinvigorating established works for modern day audiences. I have specialised in work that gets new audiences into theatres, family productions and adaptations. I have been lucky enough to have worked in the West End, regional theatres and for major youth theatre companies.
I have also worked extensively as an Associate, Assistant and Resident Director, working alongside directors including Luke Sheppard, Racky Plews, Joe Douglas, Emma Callander and Phil Willmott.
