Bethany Sharp

Director Writer Producer

I am an emerging freelance director, based in London. My preferred pronouns are she/her.

My primary interest as a director lies in new writing, in particular comedy. I am also interested in rediscovering plays from the early 20th century, especially those by lesser known female playwrights.

I have worked in the industry for over ten years, predominantly as a producer of new writing and occasionally as a writer.
