About Me!
I am particularly passionate about the arts in the community and specialise in theatrical happenings which involve people from outside the arts industry in spaces not traditionally theatrical.
I believe in collaboration and exploration without any limits on what’s possible. I am the Artistic Director for the Slow Theatre Company which is an independent theatre company based in Norfolk.
I am experienced in all aspects of theatre making and national touring and is a regular at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. As well as my work in the arts, I have over 15 years experience supporting homeless people living in hostels and supported-accommodation.
“Having worked as a writer and writing workshop leader twice with Danny and Slow Theatre, I am struck by her genuine commitment to her community, her tireless work and enthusiasm and the results she achieves.
The plays are genuinely inclusive, uplifting and inspiring for all involved. She and her company make a real difference. Long may she continue” Danusia Iwaszko Playwright, Dramaturg, and Artistic Associate at The Theatre Royal Bury St Edmunds
​
I am the Community Producer for the tremendous Performance Artistic Louise Orwin - bringing her work to new people around the country and managing a team in the UK and Germany.
As well as an artistic background, I have years of experience as a support person, working with people with alcohol and drugs addiction, mental health problems, homelessness and social anxiety, in the UK and Denmark. I am a Dementia Champion. I have travelled , using the creative arts extensively in Central America, the US and parts of Asia.
I speak Dyslexic English, rather good Danish and some terrible Spanish. I am learning BSL.
I have trained with LAMDA, Frantic Assembly, Second City and IO Chicago. I also have MSc in Gender and the Media.
