Lucy Brenchley

Director

Lucy juggles the artistic hat as a Director, Practitioner, Actor & Theatre Maker. In short a Storyteller. Lucy echoes Wilde's thoughts on theatre:
"I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being".

Lucy is passionate about theatre as a necessity for society, about the craft & rigours of it, and possesses unwavering energy, drive and appetite for a lifetimes learning.
Theatre is quite simply in Lucy's DNA.
