Sioned Jones

Theatre Maker Director/Dramaturg Writer Composer Designer/Artist/Ceramacist

I'm a Londoner with a Welsh/German Background & 30+ years experience of being a Theatre-maker, mostly as an Actor. I'm currently emerging as a Director. I love stories, from pub anecdote to Opera and everything in between. I particularly enjoy Absurdism, Cabaret, Fairytale, Music Theatre, Mythology, Love Stories, & Thrillers. I like to be made to feel cleverer than I am and I like the unexpected twist. I like vintage style but new writing, I like beauty. I like warmth. I like an audience to leave feeling better than when they arrived. I like finding elegant solutions to practical problems.
