LUCY WATERHOUSE
DIRECTOR OF THEATRE AND MOVEMENT
Lucy is a theatre director and movement practitioner, with six years' experience working across the UK, West End and internationally. She has been an Associate and Revival Director on Lucy Bailey's Olivier-nominated production Witness for the Prosecution, and on the UK tours of the Royal Shakespeare Company's Julius Caesar and Fiery Angel's Death on the Nile. She was one of six artists selected across Europe by the European Theatre Convention for its Artist in Residence programme, undertaking a residency at Teatro do Noroeste in Portugal, and her own theatre work has been commissioned by the Royal Academy of Arts.
She's been the Revival Director of a large-scale tour of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel in New Zealand, and assisted on Doubt: A Parable (Ustinov Studio, dir. Lindsay Posner) and Oleanna, named in The Guardian's Top 10 Plays of 2020.
Her own directing work has included Alice Birch's [BLANK] and The Entrance (Riverside Studios), a gothic new commission exploring the occult. Her work sometimes sits at the intersection of theatre, text and movement: SCHIELE, a dance-theatre piece at the Royal Academy of Arts; ACCRETE, an award-winning dance-film made with scientists through the Visions of Science Bursary; and Movement 3, a recent dance-theatre work at Camden People's Theatre.
Participation and access are central to Lucy's practice. On the RSC's Julius Caesar, she directed and developed work with 72 community champions across the UK, weaving them into the show each week of the tour. Her residency in Portugal included a large-scale community-led production, and she currently volunteers as a mentor to an aspiring actor through Arts Emergency.
