Declan King

Director

Hi there, my name is Declan (He/Him). I am a director and devisor. The work I make uses elements of play, improvisation, music and physical theatre. My work is collaboration focused and I believe in giving actors I work with freedom in rehearsal and when performing to constantly make new choices. This approach has been influenced by physical theatre-makers I have worked with namely Lisa May (Bruiser Theatre Company), Patrick J O'Reilly (Tinderbox), and Zoe Seaton (Big Telly Theatre Company).
