I have been an actress for 30 years, appearing in West end runs, national tours, radio plays, corporate videos, stand-up comedy and TV series for ChAnnel 4, LWT and the BBC. Since the mid 1990s I have also worked as a voice and communications skills trainer, helping business professionals to improve their client communication and internal communication skills. I graduated from Cambridge University with an M.A. in Modern and Mediaeval languages and then trained as an actress for three years at the Drama Centre. In 1997 I gained a Postgraduate Diploma in Voice Studies at the Central School of Speech and Drama.

Sympathy Pains
Synopsis:
Rosalind Adler's (Jubilate! 2012, LOL 2011) new play about a pregnant man. Guy depends on his wife Chris: she out-earns him by squillions, he'd be lost without her. His sense of failure is eating him up but just when things couldn't get much worse - a miracle! He's pregnant! God alone knows how it happened - but he feels his life suddenly has meaning. Chris, on the other hand, feels more alone than ever. How will they manage? Is Guy serious? If he lets the pregnancy go, what's left? In 2013 men and women need to renegotiate.
