About

I am a theatre maker from Aberdeen working as a Performer, Director, Acting Tutor and in Research.

I have Fibromyalgia and experience chronic pain and fibro-fog. I perform within these parametres. I am represented by VisABLE People.

I specialise in improv and have worked as an Acting Tutor, Visiting Director and Academic Lecturer for a number of Conservatoires and Universities . I have recently formed The Lettuce Collective – a semi-improvised play ensemble. My research specialisms cover improv, cognition, narcissist studies (which look at how we relate to being special) and acting/actor training.

I sometimes work in Access Consultancy and Support.  I have a lot of experience working with artists with neurodivergence; and am keen to work more with people or narratives with disabilities that are stigmatised as anti-social.

I’m middle class but grew up on a council estate in Aberdeen connected to Robert the Bruce’s Common Good Fund.  (This fund provided extra provisions for disabled people like a mixed school and a kids plunge pool). 

I am happy to be put on Arts Council applications. – Feel free to send me any requests, I really enjoy working in fringe performance.

I often use a walking stick.
