Naomi Denny
Writer DirectorI am a queer mixed race writer, director, and actor from Brighton. I have been shortlisted for Soho Theatre’s Tony Craze Award and the Overheard Podcast competition, and was also a member of Soho Theatre’s Writers Lab 2020. I like to work on stories that uplift and feature unheard voices, particularly those of the Global Majority, and I love writing stories that explore serious and important topics whilst adding an element of humanity and comedy to situations.
