INTERACTIVE THEATRE

​THE SECRET FOREST PROJECT ​has been a firm favourite among Kelburn Garden Party Festival Goers since 2011. A participatory game within the Secret Forest with a host of characters to meet and a mystery to solve. With co-designer, Cam Hall we develop the story and train performers
​SECRET OF THE SHOOTING STAR, a commission from the Edinburgh Science Festival to create an interactive street theatre experience. Players were able to interact with the story, to meet characters, and journey to some of Edinburgh’s fascinating academic environments and locations...and participate in real science. Edinburgh Science Festival, 2013
​​CLUB MUD has been engaging, surprising and inspiring festival-goers since 2010. With the Club Mud team we develop and direct flash mobs and mass games, starting with a theme, fun workshops and then all manner of festival infiltration to subvert the norm
ABOUT ME

I am a performance artist, director, teacher and producer based in Bristol in the UK. With over twenty years’ experience, my passion lies in clowning, physical theatre, circus and street arts. Participation has formed the centre for my work, whether by involving community & artists in the creative process or creating work that asks the audience to become involved. I enjoy the power of the arts to inspire and for people to be active participants in theatre, empowering them to realise their own creative potential.

My skills are many and varied and span arts and event management, production, design, teaching and performance. I am proficient in marketing, PR and business development, with skills in administration, web design and office management. My project management skills incorporate planning, budgeting, tour management & reporting. I am also a teacher, choreographer and director of dance, physical theatre and circus.

My portfolio of work has taken place across the globe, from New Zealand and Australia to the UK and Europe, from Central and South America to the islands of the Pacific.
