About me
Director, producer, and occasional writer, with 9 years experience creating and developing fringe theatre. Following a degree in Drama and English Literature, specialising in the Uncanny and the use of blood work in live performance, I co-founded Fight or Flight Productions in 2012.With a passion for dystopian narratives, I am fascinated with body language and the nuance of non-verbal communication. An avid people watcher, my interest in theatre extends from a desire to expose the inner workings of the human psyche – revealing the instinctual, the carnal, the flawed vulnerability, often drawing inspiration from my own fears and observations.
Constantly searching for the next story to bring to life, I am available for freelance directing roles, as well as dramaturgy or copy editing.
As a returning Associate Artist for the Lion and Unicorn Theatre, Fight or Flight are preparing their next show in 2021/21.
