Madeleine Perham

Director

She/Her. I'm a writer and director working with children and young people. I'm interested in stories that make us feel better at the end than the beginning and celebrate the best of the world, primarily for young audiences but also for adults. I'm currently focusing on writing so if you're interested in this kind of work please get in touch!
