Autorenporträt

When I was growing up I wanted to be an actress. I then decided I wanted to be a playwright during my Theatre Studies A'level course. I found that I couldn't abandon the theatre - these things are in the blood. I like the idea of conveying powerful ideas through my work. I've always thought that it's good to see theatre that entertains but Theatre that has the most impact communicates something important.

I seek to write plays that people will enjoy but I also seek to engage people intellectually. I hope my work does both.
