Beth Flintoff

Director

I am a freelance playwright and director with a passion for new writing and work in the community. I am an associate artist at Rabble Theatre Company; and used to be the Outreach Director at The Watermill Theatre where I worked on many productions involving young people and touring work into schools. I enjoy collaborative work and writing in response to the history of a specific place.
