“Laura is a one-of-a-kind collaborator. She's warm and playful and thoughtful and courageous. I really feel seen when I'm in a rehearsal room with her. She looks after everyone in a seemingly effortless way that builds camaraderie, makes everybody want to up their game, and elevates the quality of the work. Her care for the people she works with, and for the ideas in the room, is something special. I could wish nothing better for any artist than the opportunity to work with her.”

— John King, Director, Murmuration Dublin

“I really enjoyed working with Laura. She was quick to understand and appreciate my work, and grasp where I wanted to go with it. She gave fantastic, intelligent and perceptive feedback and delivered really professionally. She was able to describe my positives in a new way, and also identify ways to improve or extend the show that I hadn’t thought of. My piece is absolutely the better for her input, and I certainly plan to keep working with her, now and in the future.”

— Jude Simpson, Poet and Spoken Word Performer

“Laura is not only an actor's director but she's a writer's director. She trusts the text, and as a result, the actors and audience trust her. And trust is where Laura's approach to story building begins. She works from a place of respect and honesty, and every piece of the production is illuminated by her faithfulness to the craft. Laura's insightful, intuitive, engaged. And most importantly, she clearly and openly communicates her vision to those under her direction. There's a reason why she's adored by those in her cast and crew. And it's because Laura knows what the hell she's doing.”

— Christie Perfetti Williams, Playwright

“Laura has made an immeasurable difference to us. She gets into the very bones of a text and makes it breathe, she has a collaborative directorial approach and is guaranteed to make actors feel safe and confident without ever compromising her own high standards and vision for the piece. As an actor I am grateful for her insight, empathy and patience. As a producer I am grateful for her hands on, no-nonsense approach, reliability and genuine interest in every aspect of a production.”

— Charlotte Walker, Artistic Director, Blue Fire Theatre Company

“Laura is a creative force and a wonderful human. I met Laura on a 24 hour play project. When after 12 hours of writing I handed her my wild script, I wasn't prepared for the stunning and provoking pictures she built out of it. And the way she both rallied and held the actors was remarkable. She's been my favourite director to work with and I cannot wait to work on another project together.”

— Alina Rios, Playwright

“It's a joy to work with Laura, she fosters a welcoming and creative rehearsal space which really allows ideas to flow. She's always got the overarching vision in mind and takes work so far beyond what we thought it could be. She has a real skill for marrying what the artists want from the show with what an audience will respond to whilst keeping the heart of the piece strong throughout. Her love and knowledge of theatre and craft are evident in everything she does. As a writer I trust her completely with the text and as an actor I always want to be in her rehearsals!”

— JJ Leppink, Playwright

“The hardest working person in London theatre.”

— Graham Self, Performer & Playwright
