About me
I am a freelance theatre director based primarily in London. I trained on the Resident Trainee Director course at the King's Head Theatre where I am now a Junior Associate. I am the co-founder and Artistic Director of Dissident Theatre Company.I work primarily with new writing but have experience with classic texts, musical theatre including work with actor-musicians, children's theatre and touring productions.
I am keen to meet creatives developing new projects and to find assisting work with established directors on productions across the UK.
