Producing Debut...

---

I'm so proud to share that after working with 509 Arts on various projects since 2021, I am producing their latest theatre project!

We can't reveal too much at this stage however can tell you it's commissioned by Bradford 2025 for UK City of Culture and will be performed in their pop up theatre venue, The Loading Bay, in the centre of the city. 

The piece focuses on the wonders and challenges of ageing and includes a Community Chorus, performers and musicians all aged over 60. 

Building on the award winning success of Calderland and the Batley Variations, the new show will be composed by UK Theatre award winner Richard Taylor (Royal Opera, Chichester Festival Theatre, Leeds Playhouse, Sheffield Crucible and much more - details here.) 

The piece is written by Alan Dix (Artistic Director of 509 Arts) with Olivier Award winner Mike Kenny (The Railway Children, York Theatre Royal, National Theatre of Greece, Derby Theatre, Graeae and more). Directed by Alan Dix.

Our Community Chorus will be led by Chorus Director Em Whitfield Brooks (Hull Freedom Chorus, Hull Jazz Festival, PRS New Music Biennial and others).

Working alongside such an experienced, talented team is a real pinch-me moment and I'm grateful to be developing my skills as a theatre producer on such a cool project. Stay tuned for more updates!
