Sasha Danswan

My name is Sasha (she/her), and I have a passion for directing theatre productions. I am currently twenty years old studying a Bachelor of Theatre, Drama & Performance at Sussex University. I am originally from Sydney, Australia but have moved to study theatre in the UK to expand my understanding of contemporary theatre-making practices.
