I have worked extensively in script development for theatre, TV and film.
SCREEN: Since 2018, I’ve reported extensively on scripted TV drama and feature films by emerging and leading screenwriters, as well as optioned IP, for:
NBC/Universal Studios
Atlas Films
STAGE: In theatre (especially through my roles at the National Theatre Studio & Leeds Playhouse), I have developed and directed new work with playwrights including: Stacey Gregg, Ryan Craig, Jeremy Brock, Tony Award-winner Eve Ensler (now V), Amy Rosenthal, Samuel Adamson, Jack Shepherd, Heather Christian, Pinter Award winner Brad Birch, Frank McGuinness, David Williamson, Amy Evans, Jack Thorne, Cordelia O’Neill and Sasha Hails.
I love the process of helping writers and producers to focus in on the heart and essence of the story they are working on. I’m always open to new collaborations.
