What I do:
I make theatre
A little more about me:
I've been back in Cardiff about 5 years. I'm super keen to develop as a director and dramaturg having worked for many years as an actor and playwright in London and Europe. I'm interested in exploring the boundaries between documentary and verbatim theatre and performance art. I love the work and words of Grotowski, Kantor & Artaud ... would really like to see some of their principles at work in accessible, popular, socially relevant performance in Wales.
Location:
Cardiff
Projects I’m working on:
Hamlets - R&D with WMC, Theatr Clwyd, Newport Riverfront & Fran Wen. As dramaturg, director Gethin Evans
Port Talbot Got A Banksy - with WMC/Alecky Blythe. As director.
Recent: Assistant director - Cherry Orchard (Sherman)
Director - Twenty16 (Theatr Iolo)
Dramaturg - Us Proclaimed (Mess Up The Mess)
Writer - These Trees Are Made Of Blood (Arcola), Red Star Newport (Radio 4)
