Amber Wright

Director

I am a passionate film and theatre writer, director and actor with a background in dance, physical theatre and filmmaking. I believe that theatre and film is a lens through which society can see the world; I create work that has the power to educate and entertain. I am particularly interested in real life stories, period drama, adventure, and comedy. I want my work to resonate with audiences and leave them with an enlightened perspective on the subject matter. Within my work, I combine engaging storylines and depth of character, with powerful movement, beautiful sets, music and lighting.
