Dundee Rep Theatre
Drama Practitioner
November 2009 - February 2010
I am currently delivering Dundee Rep's SPARK project, which sees three schools create twelve mini-performances over six sessions. The theme of this year's project is scottish folklore, and the classes that I am working with are exploring this through drama and scottish song. The project will culminate with a celebratory sharing event on the Rep's main stage, where all the classes will have the opportunity to see each other's work.
Scottish Refugee Council
Education Facilitator

The Life After Iraq Exhibition was originally commissioned in 2008 by Scottish Refugee Council, through which a photographer and journalist engaged with Iraqi refugees in both Syria and Glasgow to bring their stories to light. I am currently touring this exhibition to Glasgow secondary schools and delivering education workshops in each school. To accompany the tour, I also wrote an Activities Pack for use in the classroom.

I am currently running two terms of Saturday and Sunday workshops for Dramaworks, working with Lower Primary Age children to develop their creativity via storytelling, visual art, play and performance.
