About

Writer-Director Laura Attridge is fast becoming known for the richness and clarity of her storytelling. Her work, both in process and in product, seeks to interrogate the cultural and societal narratives we take for granted, and to create space for transformation.

Laura has been involved in projects with many of the UK’s leading opera and classical music organisations, including the Royal Opera House, Glyndebourne, Scottish Opera, Opera North, English Touring Opera, Buxton International Festival and Mahogany Opera.

Her song cycles and libretti have been performed internationally, and her poetry has been published in prestigious magazines and zines such as The Rialto and Mslexia.
