Jessie Anand

Producer

I’m a freelance theatre and opera producer based in London. My tastes are very broad but I usually like work which is rich and formally interesting.

I come from a background in communications and development. I have worked in arts PR at The Corner Shop PR and I used to run fundraising events at the National Theatre.

As a producer, I have worked for Wayward Productions, Belarus Free Theatre, the King’s Head Theatre, Menagerie Theatre Company, Kandinsky and Loud Crowd, as well as my own companies Jessie Anand Productions and Spectra Ensemble.
