The Art of Story

Across artistic disciplines, one thing brings Dawn‘s practice together: the Art of Story.  


Story has the ability to bring people together. Shared experience creates empathy, understanding and transformation.   Dawn  is  passionate  about  sharing  stories  that  illuminate  the  experience  of   otherness,  and  has  worked  extensively  with  marginalised  communities  through her  practice  to  bring  to  light  stories  that  are  unheard  or  misunderstood.

Dawn's  focus  on  new  play  development  and  collaborative  creation  has  been  the  impetus  for  much of her  writing . Dawn  began  her  exploration  of  Social  Practice  through  new  play  development ,  working  with  marginalised  communities  to  share  stories on the stage.
