Isabella Forshaw

Isabella is a director from London who makes work that is vivid, punchy, and fundamentally joyful. She is drawn to queer and female-led stories, and her practice is rooted in human connection and shared experience. She enjoys making theatre that explores complex relationships and hard-hitting themes through bold theatricality, and her approach to directing is one of both precision and playful curiosity.

Director credits include: Four Play (Bristol Old Vic), Boys (Assembly Roxy), Catching Up (Symposium Hall, Edinburgh Fringe), Consent (Bedlam Theatre)

Assistant Director credits include: All The Happy Things (UK tour), Othello/The Tempest (The Station), La Voisin (VAULT Festival)
