Maggie Rose

I am an Arts educator and have been working at a local Secondary School – Bridgemary School for nearly two decades. In that time we have attained Artsmark Gold status for consecutive applications and this year attained Trinity Champion Centre for 25-26 due to our work around embedding ArtsAward into our STEAM projects.

I am an actor and theatre-maker with over twenty years experience in the industry. After training at Shakespeare and Company and more than a decade acting on film, television, theatre (and many many Shakespeare roles) I obtained my MFA at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, graduating with Distinction. I am also the founder and Co-Artistic Director of Crowbait Club UK and US (an organisation dedicated to the development of new theatrical writing) and Co-Artistic Director of award-winning theatre company, Mary Rose Productions. MRP works with new and emerging to produce rep-style theatre and talent to foster pathways in arts careers with an emphasis on sustainability and education. www.maryroseproductions.co.uk www.crowbait.co.uk
