I am a highly skilled drama facilitator with extensive experience of working in diverse environments including schools, theatres, and a wide-variety of community settings.
I am particularly skilled when it comes to working with people who have limited experience of theatre and the arts, with a unique ability to bring different groups of people together in shared creation – something that was at the heart of my tenure at SAVVY Theatre.
​
I spent 11 years working with people who have Social, Emotional & Mental Health (SEMH) needs, and young people with experience of the criminal justice system. I have facilitated story adventure workshops with 3 year olds, and reminiscence projects in care homes for people living with dementia.
​
With my wealth of experience and knowledge I am able to facilitate a variety of workshops including Mask, puppetry, movement, Shakespeare, improvisation, playwriting, devising and co-creation.
I am currently undertaking a research project on the craft of drama facilitation and its status within the cultural industries in the UK. Funded by Arts Council England as part of their Develop Your Creative Practice Programme.
