I’m an award-winning producer and consultant with 20 years of experience in producing digital, film and theatre productions.

In 2019, I founded Long Acre Arts in order to provide consultancy, project management and producing services in digital, film and theatre to clients in the UK creative industries.

​

After an apprenticeship in script development and fundraising, my producing career started in 2007 when I co-founded HighTide. In twelve years as CEO, I established HighTide as one of the UK's leading theatre companies. I produced over sixty new plays with theatres including the National Theatre, The Old Vic, Young Vic, Bush Theatre, Soho Theatre, in the West End, across the UK and Off-Broadway. 

Outside of Long Acre Arts, I work as Head of Producing & Partnerships at London's Royal Court Theatre. I am also the Founder of Roots, Yorkshire's queer international touring theatre company. I'm a BAFTA Connect member and a UK Theatre member. 

I'm always interested to meet creative organisations and freelancers. So if you would like to explore bringing your ideas to life, do say hello! hello@longacrearts.com
