About me
My strength as a director is that I believe in the value of all who go to create a work and that I can get the best out of each of those artists. I understand the risks you are asking of an actor, the reality of production needs and the importance that the Director's vision holds in working to empower and enrich the writer's goal in achieving as an effecting an experience as possible for the audience.Additional skills:

Industry awards:

Additional information:
I have had extensive professional experience with New Writing, both as an actor and director and believe in the power of the word, enjoy complex characters, effecting narratives and roles that empower an audience long after the theatre door closes. I hate a wasted opportunity and will always push to get the very optimum out of what I have to work with.I am a very inclusive director and know that what the audience sees and hears (or not) is a massivley important part of the work. I therefore really enjoy working with sound, Camera and the edit and the technical team to both learn from them and for us to create the whole picture together.
