ARTISTIC MISSION

Grounded in the physical arts, I am drawn to bold and socially engaged themes. I believe in the inherent humanity of physical theatre, and its ability to engage and disseminate on a visceral level.

Whether developing original compositions or re-imagining existing work, I am committed to a training based theatre practice.  One that integrates authentic movement, voice and text to provide clarity of purpose and a dynamic ensemble. My vocabulary is experimental but accessible, I strongly believe in holding onto a works core value whilst discovering new layers of connection and meaning.
