Simon Pollard
Theatre Director(he/him)
I'm a theatre director based in London, working mainly in musical theatre.
I do a lot of work with young people and am a strong advocate for young people as artists.
I'm also a writer, dramaturg, facilitator and consultant - all of which feed into my work as a theatremaker.
I get excited about new musical theatre and telling queer stories.
