Catherine Lord

I am a writer-director and director in theatre, establishing projects in film and tv. I was selected for the Royal Court Writing Program, Spring 2017. I have worked with many acting paradigms: traditional text analysis, Meisner, Michael Chekhov, and have experience with improvisation, with devising and physical theatre techniques. I am in the process of establishing a network of theatre makers for an ecological theatre project, entitled, “More-than-Human” theatre. This will do environmental story-telling with human characters and in equal roles, non-human and 'more-than-human' agents.
