For me, directing is about getting actors to be the best they can be.
I want characters with depth and personality developed through workshop, impro and concentration on text.
I admire actors with strong Voice skills; performers who know how to project, develop character voice and physicality and who can use verse or structured text with confidence.
I like to direct shows that entertain an audience and give them a really good night at the theatre.
