Senior Lecturer in Acting, Performance and Directing, coordinating Postgraduate Taught Performing Arts provision within the school of Arts and Creative Industries at The University of East London. My research concerns the relationship between contemporary performance, metamodernism and the millennial generation, as well as international activism and political theatre. This research fuses praxis and critical scholarship, encompassing workshops, performances and publications. Professionally, I have acted and directed with award-winning, London-based theatre company Pregnant Fish Theatre since 2010. My work with the company has been described as 'precisely what theatre should try to be' (Empire of the Will).
