Hi, I’m Lucy, an artist based in the North East of England! I’m an Acting graduate and Freelancer offering a range of services including Acting, Workshops & Facilitation, Writing and Marketing & Communications.

Workshops & Facilitation

I have facilitated a range of projects for both children and adults, and worked on community based projects across the Tees Valley. I have a vast experience in both facilitation and delivering my own workshops. For example, I have delivered; puppetry workshops, various craft workshops and marketing workshops. As well as working for many outdoor festivals, in various roles, from Hullaballoo in The Park, SIRF, Between the Tides, Middlesbrough Art Week, Redcar Kite Festival and more.

Acting & Performance

I graduated from The Northern School of Art with a BA (Hons) in Acting for Stage and Screen in June 2023. Since graduating I have specialised in outdoor arts and have performed at a range of local and nationally recognised festivals such as SIRF (Stockton International Riverside Festival) and worked with well-known outdoor arts companies such as Periplum CIC. I have worked as a Puppeteer, on Site Specific work and has performed Walk-About theatre.

Writing

I specialise in writing children’s picture books and have self-published two books as part of my company Imagination Tails. My first book ‘Spook and The Shadow’, was written straight after graduating University, and was self-published in 2024. After launching our first book, Imagination Tails’ were commissioned to write a book for the celebration of the Stockton & Darlington Railway’s 200 Year Anniversary. ‘Tales of the Tracks’ comprises of 5 short stories based on facts and myths of the Stockton and Darlington Railway line.
