Dramaturgy and Teaching

As a dramaturg, I have provided script reports, run industry readings and development workshops, and have participated in soup-to-nuts full-productions as the dramaturg on staff. Here you'll also find my experience in running writer's workshops, sitting on selection committees, scouting for publishers, and more. Most recently, I am contributing to the Dramaturgs' Network's upcoming book 'Dramaturgy and...' with a chapter on dramaturgy and neurodiversity.

Dramaturgy Reports

I provide written reports for texts at all stages of development, for plays and musicals:

FREE- a mini-report on your first ten pages
£50- a full report on your full text
£75- a full report with a Zoom call

I am also available to run industry readings and workshops, or provide dramaturgy for the full production of your work. Shoot me an email for more info!

Literary Manager/Dramaturg

I have been on the selection committee for Off Broadway playhouse's The Player's Theatre in NYC since 2018, as well as an in-house dramaturg for their self-production program. I have also worked as a scout for Steel Spring Stage Rights, seeing on and off-Broadway productions and reporting back as to their suitability for publication. As a programme dramaturg, I have most recently worked at the Soho Theatre on Extracts, and the scratch night A Scattering at the Etcetera Theatre.

Criticism

Since 2023, I have written criticism, conducted interviews, and written in-depth pieces for FringeReview. I have covered Edinburgh Festival Fringe, The Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the Edinburgh Book Festival, and the Edinburgh Independent Film Festival, as well as theatre in London. One highlight is a piece I wrote countering the Spectator's article on neurodiversity at the Fringe in 2024.

Teaching

I have taught in various capacities for over fifteen years. Highlights include being the learning partner at Emerson College's Inspiring Awe class for theatre majors, which devised work for Boston's Franklin Park Zoo; teaching piano and voice as well as being the accompanist for recitals at the non-profit Nashua Community Music School; and creating curriculum for music students with special needs.
