Background

About Daisy Minto

I'm a theatre and circus director, creating work that tours across the UK. Currently working on circus theatre show SpaceJunk with Orange Skies Theatre in partnership with UK Space Agency, Norwich Theatre and Jacksons Lane, and recently awarded a Developing Your Creative Practice Grant from Arts Council England to expand my integrated theatre/circus directing practice. I specialise in devised and collaborative making, with a background in writing for stage. I'm also an experienced workshop leader, teaching performance making techniques, how to be a self-producing artists and how to talk about your work before you've made it. Alongside this I have a long-established career in work in Marketing for the arts; working with theatres, touring circus, festivals and theatre companies to develop new audiences. My core strengths are creativity, leadership and organisational skills. I’m determined, resourceful, compassionate, collaborative, articulate and a fast learner.
