Workshops
I've taught extensively over the past 14 years. This has included Visiting Lecturer and Director at Middlesex University and Central School of Speech and Drama. I've directed shows for BAC's youth theatre and After Hours programme for adults and for Lyric Young Company. Recently I directed a large scale show based on Nikos Kazantzaki's Zorba The Greek for Central, with a cast of 48 undergraduates at the legendary Minack Theatre in Cornwall.
Along with running workshops and production based residencies for youth theatres, schools groups and drama schools I've been developing workshops with ITC (Independent Theatre Council) around independent theatre practices and reimagining theatre beyond regular theatre spaces and practices. This includes Introduction to Rural Touring.
I devise bespoke workshops and training solutions and my main areas are -
Complicity and Presence
Long Form Improvisation
Clowning and Play
Devising for Storytelling Actors
