Theatre Director Facilitator Movement Director

She/her. Queer Director and theatre maker. I work predominantly with movement and physicality, using collaborative processes to discover how the body can act as a vehicle for meaning. I am interested in stories by and for women, queerness on stage and cohering the horror genre with theatre practice.
