1. Where are you working at present?
Primarily in London, at the Box of Tricks office, but we’re really excited about travelling around the country with our tour of ‘Head/Heart’ this summer.
2. Describe your occupation and why you love it.
I’m a theatre director. It’s a great occupation because you’re constantly challenging yourself and working with other people who are equally passionate about theatre.
3. Who do you most enjoy working with and why?
Working with actors is really enjoyable as you feel a tangible sense of achievement at the end of every rehearsal day as you edge closer to bringing a play to life.
4. What's your dream day?
Rehearsals followed by a sunny summer evening in a beer garden planning the future of theatre!
5. Favourite ever show and why?
At the moment I’d probably say Black Watch, having seen it twice in 2008 and 2010, I would still say it’s the most inspirational piece of theatre I’ve ever seen.
6. Favorite actor/actress and why?
6. Favorite actor/actress and why?
Again, I don’t think I could commit to just one– Paterson Joseph, David Morrissey, Andrew Scott, all of whom bring a mesmerizing level of detail and truth to every performance.
7. Favourite band/musical artist and why?
Elbow, Bright Eyes, Laura Marling and Maximo Park are often on the playlist at Box of Tricks HQ. Just great tunes.
8. Where do you see yourself in 25 years?
8. Where do you see yourself in 25 years?
Hopefully still supporting and promoting the next generation of new writing, maybe in a building of our very own!
9. Any exciting future projects you'd like to mention?
Quite a few things in the mix, but nothing we can talk about at the moment I’m afraid. Watch this space!
10. Random one: what's your favorite cheese?
Camembert, especially when it’s baked and there’s plenty of bread to dip into it…delicious!
