Lynsey McCall

Director

I am currently freelancing in arts and education roles having recently left full time teaching. I am looking for assistant director roles currently to gain experience in a professional rehearsal space, rather than a school rehearsal! I was a drama teacher and Head of Drama for over ten years in London and as such have staged musicals, plays and facilitated young people in devising their own work.
My interests lie in the community and the impact performance can have. Also in new writing and especially in the female voice within theatre. I love the use of movement in performance as a form of expression.
