Jennifer Lafferty

Theatre director Performer Artistic director Associate artist Theatre maker

I am a young, Scottish creative (she/her) who is passionate about theatre making, particularly directing with a strong focus on contemporary, Stanislavski based naturalism. I have a foundation in acting but for the last two years have been exclusively directing. My practice combines theoretical understanding with practical experience and a passion for audience-perspective led direction.
