Actor
My name is Grainne Robson (she/her) and I am a theatre-maker from Nottingham, living in London. When I came to London I originally trained in acting and then found a love for writing comedy and directing. I have since been mainly creating and working on Fringe projects as director, assistant director, producer, publicity or stage manager.
I have mainly worked with live theatre projects and I specialize in genres of comedy, satire and political pieces. However, I would love to get into more filmed projects.
As a director, I mainly like working collaboratively with the actors, I like creating an open and friendly atmosphere in which the actors can explore and discuss their characters if possible, therefore to create the best performance.
