Vicky Moran

Theatre Director Writer/Dramaturg Community Artist

I'm Vicky (she/her). I'm a Theatre Director who works predominantly with new-writing.

I've worked extensively with theatre's and companies across the UK including: Donmar Warehouse, The Old Vic, The Young Vic, Soho Theatre, Clean Break, Jermyn Street Theatre, The Pleasance and Theatre 503.

I'm a Mentor Director for NT Connects, a Project Associate for The Young Vic and an Artist in Residence at Artsdepot 2023. I am also a script-reader for The Bush & Bruntwood Prize for Playwriting.

I use strong and integrated visual and aural aesthetics that are often playful, visceral, and imaginatively ambitious in form; fusing together multiple disciplines such as verbatim, live music, performance art, movement and immersive theatre.
