DIRECTING
Much of my directing practice is focussed around my work as co-Artistic Director of Cyphers Theatre Company. For Cyphers, I adapt, develop and direct classic stories for the stage. These productions are normally designed for touring and are heavily ensemble based.
As a freelance director, I bring these same skills to new writing, adaptation and ensemble projects. I work to shape and develop the stories of others in an open, collaborative and gently questioning way.
At the heart of my practice is a sense of team - whether it's a one-person show or a large cast musical. I am always focussed on bringing the actors, stage management and creatives together. I feel that every member of the team should have the opportunity to express themselves and feel fully invested in the production.
I am always keen to hear from and meet with writers, companies and producers who might be interested in working with me. So do get in touch or book in for a 'virtual coffee meeting'!
I am available as a director, assistant director or dramaturg.
