Neetu Singh

Writer Director Assistant Director

I'm a theatre maker, assistant director, director and writer from Hackney, East London. My lived experiences as a working-class British Punjabi woman greatly define my work and interests. I am interested in making theatre that includes, platforms and celebrates. I enjoy theatre that brings joy, that builds and creates communities, involves young people and the local community into the world of theatre and beyond.
