James Dodd
Theatre Director


With experience working across musicals, immersive theatre, Shakespeare, and new writing, I am a director driven by bold storytelling and strong collaboration. As a queer, working-class artist, I bring a distinct perspective to my work, creating theatre that places humanity at its heart.
Having worked professionally as a Resident, Associate, and Assistant Director, alongside directing my own productions, I am detail-orientated and foster rehearsal rooms where play and curiosity lead the storytelling.
