A huge part of my year was spent working with these incredible women running our final project of a 5 year arts council funded programme in HMP New Hall and sharing our work, documentary and my MA learnings. It was a complex and moving process and one I am immensely proud of.

In Jan I teamed up with Louie Keen to devise and deliver @donmarwarehouse.bsky.social Local Performance Programme for Macbeth, introducing local schools to the play before they came to see it. They loved the innvoative sound design and intimate performances.
