I have been practising Playback since 2000. I was a facilitator for Playback South, a London group, until it disbanded in 2020. |I am now a member of True Heart Theatre
My background is in teaching, for the majority of the time concerned with raising achievement of ethnic minority pupils in Primary education. I also studied Dramatherapy at Roehampton, London.
I have been involved with theatre projects and performance projects. A major project was the creation and staging of Hotel Medea, a Brazilian/London collaboration with performances in Rio de Janeiro province and in London. It was an immersive overnight event, the last appearance being in 2012 in the Hayward gallery.
More recently, I have worked with the choreographer Alex Baczynski-Jenkins in a Chisenhale commission,
‘The tremble, the symptom, the swell and the hole together’ (January -March 2017) which was shown in many European cities in the following years including, Warsaw, Milan, Madrid, Paris, Bilbao, Kuopio.
I am at present involved with Immediate Theatre, Hackney, which engages with local communities using drama.
