Playwriting
MY WRITING PROCESS
All of my writing involves a research journey, sharing, and open collaboration.
I’ve written plays in collaboration with sound designers, landscape artists, directors, performers, designers, choreographers, site-specific theatre companies, scientists, engineers, historians, academics, power station workers, farming communities and more.
My first plays were for young companies, adapting and originating material for large casts. I then moved onto national touring work for teenage audiences, rural touring, working with heritage, history and archives, and more recently focusing on real-life stories and communities of place, including international working partnerships.
I’m always eager to find new ways to exercise my writing and dramaturgy skills and am happy to hear from future collaborators if you think I might be the right fit for you.
