Let us know a little bit about you and why you'd like this opportunity. What would you like to learn or take away from this experience?
Hello team, Raised on the Isle of Wight, I'm a young theatre-maker splitting my time between London and the island (present restrictions excepted, of course). Since graduating from the University of Northampton in 2019, I've engaged primarily in TIE and other small-scale arts projects. I believe comedy is a theatre-maker's most powerful tool (other than a super-cool smoke machine). For me, this placement is an opportunity to build my skills in creating a captivating show as part of a collaborative process with other artists. I want my art to contribute to a more outspoken and fulfilled community. The time freed up by lockdown has allowed me to start developing projects of my own and the exposure to a professional rehearsal room would allow me to train my directing muscle. During my end of degree production I was both an actor and Assistant Director, which is where I got a taste for the role. There's nothing more fulfilling to me than making a meaningful contribution to both the performative and practical aspects of a show. I also co-directed my dissertation piece (a short play) and would love to engage in such work again. I am available for all the dates listed, if selected. Best wishes, Moses
