Lily Howkins

Director

I work primarily as a movement director and actor, but in the last few years I have also been working as an assistant director. I trained as a dancer when I was younger, and then as an actor at Mountview after studying English Literature at Durham University. I think this spread of training has resulted in me being a creative who cares passionately about telling a story clearly and well - be that through movement, words or other means - and I am always excited to be collaborating with other creatives who have the same passion.
