The Durham Showcase:
March 2019
The Durham Showcase is produced and performed each year by Durham University’s most talented students, culminating in performances in both Durham and London, at the Tristan Bates Theatre.
As the director of the showcase, I worked alongside a troupe of ten actors to select material that would showcase them at their best. Across a period of several months, we rehearsed weekly to develop nuanced and individual performances.

“The showcase included a delightfully wide variety of pieces selected in a way that both reflected the troupe's own individual skills to the best of their abilities, and ensured the showcase would mesh as a whole to entertain an audience.”
