Working with young people and helping actors develop their skills has always been a cornerstone of my theatre practice.

I have directed more than 15 showcases for Reduced Circumstances at The Soho Theatre and The Leicester Square Theatre. Details of showcases, how to apply and actors’ testimonials can be found on the Reduced Circumstances Website

It is a hugely rewarding experience working with actors to hone their skills and finding just the right scene to show their cast-ability to its greatest possible advantage.

I am also available for one-on-one work with actors or scene partners for auditions or workshops. Please get in touch for more details.

I have nearly ten years of experience working in education, workshops and youth productions. I love the vitality, humour and enthusiasm that young people bring to their practice.

I have been a LAMDA and Trinity Guildhall Tutor since 2006 at a leading girls’ independent school. There has been 100% pass rate for the last 5 years – with a majority of pupils gaining a Merit or a Distinction – Grades 2-8.

I have led workshops for the following organisations:

The Almeida Theatre

The Arcola Theatre

The National Theatre

Reduced Circumstances

Iceni Productions

Out of Order Theatre

I have also been lucky enough to direct a number of youth productions including

Silence by Moira Buffini for St Mary’s School Ascot

Oliver for Guildford Youth Theatre at the Electric Theatre (www.guildfordtheatreschool.co.uk)

The History Boys (with a female cast) The Rose Theatre

I will also be writing and running a ten week Tools for Directing course for the Bridge Theatre Training Company details of which can be found here:
