Harrison Knights

Director

I am a trans theatre creative with a particular focus on trans representation within theatre. I am the artistic director of True Voices Company, which is a resident theatre company at The Turbine. I have been an actor and I am now moving into directing and producing to help redress the balance and get trans producers and directors within the mix. I have some experience in producing but I'd really like experience in the working of assisting directors and directing myself. I am often brought on as consultant to sort out the mess over in appropriate castings of trans characters. This has often led to fruitful relationships with these production companies. My pronouns are He/Him.
