About me
I am an emerging theatre maker specialising in adaptation, re-framing cross-cultural narratives, and re-examining the classics. I am particularly interested in the reception of myth & literature from the ancient world.In 2016, while studying Classics for an MA from King's College London, I created Found In Translation Theatre Company, where I am currently an Artistic Director. I also coordinate the company's outreach programme and have a background of working in education.
Additionally, I work freelance as a youth theatre practitioner, with experience of delivering workshops and programmes for children with special educational needs and disabilities.
