Oliver McFadden

He/Him. I graduated from Royal Central School of Speech and Drama with a Masters degree in Advanced Theatre Theatre Practice in 2019 and since then have, as so many of us do, worked primarily front of house in a theatre - although, with my extensive events management experience I was lucky enough to qualify for a supervisor and cover manager position.
I have recently launched myself as a professional Assistant Director and Collaborative Theatre Maker. By this, I mean that for me assistant directing is not going to be a means to get enough experience to become a director, it is the career itself. I want to hone the skills that are specific to assistant directing.
Aside from this I am also a collaborative theatre maker with Punkt Collective, and occasionally an actor and writer.
