Hi, I'm Sara. I'm a performer, writer and producer.
I'm Co-Director of Eggs Collective, a company making performance for stage, screen and public places. "Salty work at the boundaries of theater and cabaret, offering sly satire under a veil of sweetness" - The New York Times.
I'm also a participatory arts practitioner, working with people of all ages on performance-based projects. I have particular experience working with people living with dementia.
As a writer-performer, I have co-created theatre shows with Eggs Collective for national touring (including Soho Theatre, Latitude Festival & Edinburgh Fringe), and digital & broadcast projects for BBC, including SILKY HOTEL, GET A ROUND and SMILE LOVE IT MIGHT NEVER HAPPEN - nominated for Best Comedy Programme at Royal Television Society Awards NW in 2018 and 2019, respectively. I was selected as one of BBC Writersroom's Northern Voices 2020.
As an actor, I have performed in THE FOREST OF FORGOTTEN DISCOS (Hope Mill Theatre/ Contact), DOG (Caroline Moran/ West Yorkshire Playhouse), IT BURNS IT ALL CLEAN (Selina Thompson/ Transform Festival), and interactive performance including THE DOOR (Scottee & Friends), HUNT & DARTON CAFÉ (Hunt & Darton) and BLACK TONIC (The Other Way Works).
Recent participatory projects include an artist residency for The Care Aesthetics Research Project, for University of Manchester & Care Lab at The Whitworth. I've also been working with nursing students at University of Chester exploring arts & dementia practice; with older people in day centres across Huddersfield for Creative Scene. Later this year, I'll be with Eggs Collective making three cabaret shows for Bradford 2025 UK City of Culture; and in Sheffield where we'll be doing a stint as Rivelin Co's Neighbourhood Artists.
