Mimi Pattinson

she/her

I am a London based Theatre Director with family in the Lake District. I am interested in relationship-driven stories which resonate beyond their context. I like musicals, new writing and reimagining classics. I particularly like working closely with writers throughout the development and rehearsal process.

I recently completed a Masters in English at Cambridge, focusing on the relationship between environmental and mental health crises in contemporary writing.
