JO MCINNES | DIRECTOR

Since 2007 I have worked as a theatre director, including THE LEGENDS OF THEM (Hackney Showroom/Brixton House/Royal Court), FOR ALL THE WOMEN WHO THOUGHT THEY WERE MAD (Hackney Showroom), THE HARDEST RAIN (Old Vic), 36 PHONE CALLS (Hampstead Theatre), I CAN HEAR YOU & THIS IS NOT AN EXIT (RSC/Royal Court) & VERA, VERA, VERA (Royal Court).

Current Projects:
THE CONTENT by DC Moore, in development with the Royal Court
SMALL BOATS by Sonja Linden, in development with Good Chance & Hackney Showroom
perhaps to give it a name by Zawe Ashton, in development with the Royal Court

At the core of my process as a director is working from the root upward to enable the artist – writer and performer – to fully realise their ambition.

I am always interested in hearing about and coming on board with new projects at the developmental stage. If you are looking for a director for a workshop or R&D, please contact me at mcinnesjoanne@gmail.com
