About me
Growing up working in drama I always had a penchant for directing and creating new work. Over the last 10 years this has moved from hobby to professional endeavour and I have grown to become an accomplished director, managing my own theatre company and producing work as well as working freelance for others.I have a passion and dedication to all types of theatre that offer something different and exciting, with a particular in interest in visual storytelling, poor theatre and Commedia dell'Arte.
Additional skills:
I am experienced in Commedial dell'Arte and other forms of mask work and physical comedy. I have trained and worked with a number of prolific companies and directors in this field over the last four years and maintain close ties with many of them.
I have a strong background in physical theatre and ensemble work and have a lot of experience in devised theatre. Shakespeare is also a passion of mine and I have worked extensively in verse.
