Theatre Maker Theatre Director / Dramaturg Deviser Performer Theatre Producer

I am a freelance theatre maker, director, dramaturg, performer and producer. I have a particular interest in interactive theatre that gives audiences agency to tackle socio-political issues. I am Artistic Director of award winning interactive theatre company Kill The Cat (www.killthecattheatre.co.uk).

I also have a keen interest in history and regularly devise and perform with historical theatre company History Riot at locations such as Hampton Court Palace, The Tower of London and Dover Castle.
