SHOWS

I make work with heart and joy, whether that’s reimagined Shakespeare, new comedy or family Christmas shows.

Check out my production shots for examples of my work and get in touch if you’d like to learn more.

I teach, direct and coach Shakespeare. If you are looking to improve a Shakespeare monologue for an audition or you need a bold, contemporary production of Shakespeare for your drama school, college or university then my training at the Royal Shakespeare Company and 20 years experience of working on Shakespeare is what you need.

SHAKESPEARE

SCRIPTS

I'm an experienced script consultant, editor and dramaturg with a background in new writing for theatre, comedy and cabaret. 

I've worked with writers, comedians and devising groups to hone, sharpen and focus their narrative, characters and jokes. From your first show to a seasoned pro, I can provide a sounding board for your ideas, and help you discover and deliver the best version of your story. I work with scripts for theatre, film, stand up, cabaret and comedy character narratives. 

Yoga has formed part of my practice as a theatre director since 2008. I’ve used yoga with actors of all ages, fitness and body types. I've found it useful when directing Shakespeare, physical theatre, circus and even comedy.

In addition to the yoga training and resources I offer I’m also an experienced choreographer and movement director, specialising in ensemble physical work and intimacy.
