About

Hi

I am a freelance theatre director and festival director, workshop facilitator and project manager based in the north of England.

In 2013 I cofounded and became the Festival Director of Assemble Fest. Assemble Fest is a one day arts festival which commissioned local theatre makers to create work in independent venues.  

I gained a merit on the Birkbeck MFA in Theatre Directing, where I trained at Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and was a resident assistant director at West Yorkshire Playhouse.

"Our street our stage was excellent. A brilliant concept staged in procession, engaging and emotive. "
