I'm a multi-award winning actress, whose strengths lie in comedy, period and classical drama and open air shows. I trained and specialised in adapting Shakespeare and Restoration performance and particularly enjoy reading and telling the stories of strong and passionate women.
Currently, I am writing and developing my own one woman show, inspired by the life and racing legacy of Beryl Swain.
