Emma Hawkins

Theatre Director Writer Visual Artist

I'm Emma (she/her) a recent Fine Art graduate who's be directing work with my student production company, Jazz Hands Productions, for the last 4 years. I'm also a designer, choreographer, writer and visual artist. I'm particularly interested in musical theatre, new writing and work that explores beyond the traditional format of theatre, e.g immersive theatre and art-theatre hybrid.
