Interested in collaborating with producers & writers on screen work. Shorts/ features/ tv. Based in the UK, but happy to work internationally for a good story! I’d be so grateful for shares or recommendations 🙏🏽 🌍 Some stills from my last short … 📸 by Dan Ollderhead

#ThroughItAllTogether scores a powerful goal – one that hits you right in the heart. New play @cpoconnor87 @LeedsPlayhouse puts #LUFC straight through to the First Division. Beautifully written and sensitively directed @gitikabuttoo. Great chemistry @reece_dinsdale @ShobnaGulati

#ThroughItAllTogether by @cpoconnor87 at @LeedsPlayhouse is absolutely beautiful! Every beat is on point. Essentially a story about the enduring power of love; through the pain of dementia and of a football team that struggles to make promotion. @gitikabuttoo's direction is...1/3
