About me

Director & deviser with special interest in making and remaking new versions of Greek drama & other ancient forms. I seem to keep making shows about time, mental health, memory, and how the past is never very far away.

My other interests include:

Physical theatre and movement in storytelling
incorporating text and good storytelling into devising
Script development & collaborating with writers

I've been Associate Director for Actors of Dionysus for the last six months. I am also Artistic Director of Catharsis and have directed their last three shows.
