Rea Dennhardt

Playwright Dramaturg Theatre Director Short Film Director Deviser

I am at heart a writer who loves working in theatres either devising or devising into scripts. I have experience of directing short films and German, British and Indian theatre. My preferences are for modern rather than historical staging and scripts.
