Lorna Hale

Director Theatre Maker Writer Dramaturge

My name is Lorna Hale and I am a freelance theatre maker, director and dramaturge.
During my BA in theatre studies I majored in both theatre and human rights and gender and sexual politics. My work since then has remained thematically consistent with these areas of importance.
My Masters in stage direction, text and production afforded me the opportunity to develop my practise as both a director and scriptwriter.
I am currently based in Norwich where I am co-teaching an undergraduate module in drama and theatre studies at the University of East Anglia. I am also a member of Concentric Circles Theatre Company.
