ABOUT ME

I am currently a Milton Keynes based creative/Actor. Primarily trained in theatre but during that time gained an interest in film/screen and creative writing. I’m eager to continue exploring these aspects and more of the industry as my career progresses. I’ve always envisioned a full time career in the industry, learning and collaborating alongside industry professionals. I love script analysis and character building. It encourages me to think beyond perceived limitations, creating branching backstories that I can be draw from and redesign. I tend to thrive in dramatic roles but find theatrical and comedic characters a blast to play with too. My main aim is broaden my skill sets, soaking up as much knowledge as possible to become a well rounded person and performer. I believe the art of storytelling comes from the want to learn in a way that can’t simply be taught and the need, at times, to break away from one’s reality. It would be an honour to be someone’s means of release or source of entertainment and insight. A person who inspires, encourages and supports creativity and discovery.

ABOUT ME

For the most part of my adult life I’ve lived in a small town doing small performances for the love of it! Anyone who knows me would say that I thrive in chaos and so I try to find it every opportunity I get. I think I’m known for my high energy and positive outlook on life and although I would agree, I’ve always enjoyed acting for allowing me to explore my more vulnerable side.

ABOUT ME

I am a Manchester-based freelance Theatre Practitioner and Performer with a strong passion for exploring human lived experiences through performance. I believe storytelling should be accessible to all and find great fulfilment in working with, and performing for, people of all ages and backgrounds. Trained in multidisciplinary performance styles, I am motivated by the challenge of taking on new roles and creative opportunities. This year, I have been fortunate to perform in two rural touring productions: most recently touring the UK with a children’s theatre show for audiences aged 3–11, and earlier presenting a multimedia solo contemporary piece as part of a four-part theatre showcase across rural venues in Cumbria and the Northwest. I am now thrilled to be joining Ardent’s premiere of Drifting and to experience my first run in a London theatre.
