Savannah Ayoade-Greaves

Savannah is a Guyanese-Nigerian actress, writer and director from South London. Her most recent short play, We Inna Panoramic, was performed as part of Theatre503's Rapid Write Response and her other short play will be performed at Southwark Playhouse in 2022.

She has written articles for student magazines, digital marketing agency Wellekin, and is currently writing a full-length play centring the Black-British Caribbean experience as an older person. She has also written a Horror short- which she will also direct, and co-written a comedy pilot recounting her university experience.

I'm interested in work that amplifies marginalised voices and offers new perspectives on race, gender and class. I'm also interested in writing work that explores the breadth of the Black British experience and musical theatre.
