About me
I hold a BA and an MA in Literature from the University of Wales, Aberystwyth. I produced 8 shows a year for three years while leading the university dramaSOC, as well as directing 'Macbeth' in promenade through Aberystwyth Castle, a site-sympathetic production of 'Titus Andronicus' and Sartre's 'No Exit' at Aberystwyth Arts Centre.While at RADA, I assisted Jonathan Miller on 'Three Sisters', and Tim Luscombe on Peter Nichols' 'Poppy'. On attachment at the Theatre Royal Stratford East, I was Assistant Director for 'Spoke-Lab', 'Aladdin' and 'Martina Cole's Two Women' as well as leading workshops with the youth theatre. I have also assisted on Gary Owen's 'Mrs. Reynolds and The Ruffian' for the Watford Palace Theatre.
I have been a member of staff at Theatre503 for several years, directing more than 20 new writing pieces. From 2007-8 I was the Resident Assistant Director at the City-Lit Rep Company. I also direct and provide dramaturgical support for the London Playwrights Collective, and run Firstborn Theatre, directing and producing 'Playlist' at the Etcetera Theatre and Theatre503, 'Journey Song' at the Tabard Theatre and an ongoing series of mask and improvisation workshops.
Directing credits in the last year include 'After Circles at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe', the audio drama 'Leicester Square' for Urban Scrawl and 'Identity Swap Shop', a performance installation in Brixton Village Market.
I am also a freelance lighting designer with credits in London, Edinburgh, the Channel Islands and Ceredigion.
