Greg Barnett

Director

I have worked as an actor for 20 years, working with some of the most prestigious companies in the country including the RSC, The National Theatre, The BBC to name a few. I am now transitioning into directing alongside my acting work.

I have been writing for the past 5 years and am launching a production of my new play 'The Farm' in association with the Salisbury Playhouse.

I view my work as an actor very similarly to that of a director and have watched and learnt from some of the very best in the business. I am very passionate to create challenging, informative and entertaining work that focuses on important topics. I have a lot of experience working in devised theatre, creating stories with political and socio-economic themes.
