Ruth Allison
Director and Drama Facilitator
Hello!
​
​​I am a theatre director and facilitator who creates theatrical experiences with young people, and those young at heart. Since 2021, I have been lucky to work with and for communities and organisations across the North of England.
I have managed the successful Youth Theatre at The Georgian Theatre Royal, Richmond, North Yorkshire. This was an incredibly enriching opportunity on my creative journey, whilst allowing me to showcase my skills as a facilitator and director.
In September 2022, I became the Youth Theatre Director at The Octagon in Bolton, and have directed theatre in and around Greater Manchester since.

I am a Director and Facilitator based in North- West England with a particular interest in working with and for young people (and those young at heart). I have a flair for directing socially- engaged theatre with and for young people, as well as facilitating drama experiences for groups who may not have regular access to the arts. In my practice, I am happiest when my company is happiest, working collaboratively to find creative, and often physical, approaches to bring an idea to life.
