Harry Kingscott

Director

He/Him.

My main interest is in movement and ensemble. I have also worked as a Movement Director and I enjoy this crossover when Directing my own productions.

I started as a regional director, originating from Derby and then living in Devon for five years, before training at the École Jacques Lecoq in Paris for two years. I am now based in London and regularly act as well as making my own theatre work.

I love projects that make use of an actors body, their physical skills and their restrictions. I love work that experiments with empty space and the space between actors and audience.
