Her previous work includes The Secret Agent, The Alpha Project, The Turing Project, Summerland and Inside the Memory Palace. She has collaborated with a number of co-producers including British Science Festival, Manchester Museum of Science and Innovation, Theatre Royal Margate, and Greenwich Theatre.
