​
Alice is a complex human trying to deal with child abuse-related trauma which she has lived with for 40 years, whilst living with voices and alcohol.
​
As the day progresses, she unleashes the contents of her ‘box’ that she has kept locked all these years.
​
Today, she is determined to address this once and for all in a more healthy way and look forward to being at peace with who she is and embracing the rest of her life
I am an experienced Director specialising in devising new work, and large-scale outside promenade pieces, in non-traditional theatre spaces, where professional actors and members of the community perform together.
My practice starts with a response to the piece both physically and through the script. I use research, discussion, improv and physical exercises in the rehearsal room whilst inviting a feeling of collaboration, exploration and excitement. I like to experiment with art forms and will regularly look at how else we can let the piece evolve. I enjoying bringing multi-media and technology into live theatre.
I enjoy challenging an audiences senses and love immersive happenings pulling in from all art forms such as film/video/sound/music/dance/movement/performance art/visual arts/circus and spoken word.
​
I have directed Youth Theatre for 10 years, including for the NT Connections Festival five times and for Latitude Musical Festival.
​
I am available for short and long runs, professional and non-professional pieces, youth and children theatre projects.
