Ella Gold

Theatre Director Writer

My pronouns are she/her. I'm a theatre director interested in making work which helps bring about real-world change. I recently put on a verbatim play made up of people's anonymously submitted testimonies of their experiences of sexual assault, which raised money for Cambridge Rape Crisis. I'm currently doing some community outreach work for 'The Straw Chair', coming to the Finborough Theatre. I'm also interested in work which transcends the boundaries of art forms; for instance, gig theatre, or merging visual arts with theatre (as an amateur photographer myself).
