Dominic Weatherby

Theatre Director Dramaturg Actor Writer Teacher

I am a Norwich-based theatre director, dramaturg, writer, and teacher, specialising in the creation of original work. I am drawn to international collaborations, (auto)biographical material, and projects with a physical scope.

I am co-artistic director of the theatre company Emballage Ensemble, making collaborative, intermedial performances through play, movement, and research.

I am an experienced facilitator, having led workshops at galleries, green spaces, churches, and schools. I have worked with school pupils, university students, and multilingual groups.

I trained on the MA in Advanced Theatre Practice at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama in London and at Ecole Internationale de Theatre Jacques Lecoq in Paris.
