Biography

Anna is a Theatre Director on the MA course at BOVTS. She is directing a production of Black Mountain by Brad Birch at the Wardrobe Theatre for the Summer Season, and was Assistant Director on Tiger Country at the Tobacco Factory Theatre.

In 2018 she received a 1st class honours degree in English Language and Literature from the University of Edinburgh and since then has been working in the theatre industry in Scotland.

Previous Assisting credits include Love the Sinner (Vanishing Point), And… And… And… (Strange Town Touring Company), BABS and The Silver Superheroes (A Play, A Pie and A Pint).

One of my favourite parts about BOVTS is that it feels ‘homegrown’. From the set to the costume, lighting, acting and sound, every single aspect of a theatre production or film is down to the students. The location of Clifton is so serene and the School being so small everyone knows each other and it feels so personal and special. Violet Morris, BA Professional Acting Student
