so you wanna write a play?
A dramaturg is an ally, advocate, and firm friend to the work that a writer is developing.
I can onboard with a project at any stage of its development, whether that is:
-
finessing the concept into a treatment;
-
supporting the script between its drafts;
-
or representing your voice in a rehearsal room as the script changes with actor, director, and producer input.
Think of me as your coach and cheerleader. I will push you and your work to ensure its best quality is reached, but I will also be rooting for you every step of the way and keeping your spirits high as the process goes along.

Did you know?
My core values are founded on queer, ecological, and decolonial work.
With this in mind, I am keen to add work that aligns with these values to my portfolio. Let me know if you're looking to research and develop along these lines, we can make innovative, creative, and culturally resonant art together!

Rates
I can tailor my dramaturgical support according to you and your project's needs. These rates will give you an idea of my basic services but we can agree on final costs when I've heard a little more on what you are looking for from a dramaturg.
If you are applying for funding, please get in touch to see how I can support and my project rates.
If you have been commissioned by a producing house or company and would like a dramaturg to support you, then please initiate a conversation with the house/company first.
