ABOUT ME

Steph Connell (she/her)

I’m a freelance producer with 13 years experience in theatre and events. I often work with small companies and individual artists to help find their mojo, figure out what they want to do and to make it happen. I also work with large companies to bring new ideas and organisational skills to help make great work. I've produced 34 small - mid scale productions from conception to delivery, completed 19 national tours and four international transfers, 8 youth theatre festivals and raised over £1.4 million.

​

I like to make work that explores big ideas through small human stories told in surprising ways. 

 

I’m excited about artists and communities, helping both to grow, learn from, and engage with each other – especially when they aren’t expecting it. Most of all I love seeing a project through. From hearing a nugget of an idea over a cup of tea to seeing audiences come together and experience it, and hopefully talk about it for years to come. I love discovering new talent and helping creative people to realise their ideas and ambitions, supporting them to take risks. I also love working with communities of all shapes and sizes to come together, make work and feel empowered.

 

I have experience in new writing, dance, children’s theatre, musicals, outdoor work, digital work and large-scale events. I am based in Glasgow but work across the UK. I am currently Senior Producer of ThickSkin alongside other projects in development. I was previously Executive Producer of Wonder Fools. Other organisations I have worked with include Sleeping Warrior, Al Seed Productions, ThickSkin, Citizens Theatre, Tron Theatre, National Theatre of Scotland, Frantic Assembly, Artichoke and Greenwich & Docklands International Festival.
