Testimonials

I have met and worked with some incredibly talented people in The Actors Club, The Directors Club and The Writers Club. I also think that Heather Ward, the Artistic Director and the rest of The Director’s Cut Theatre team deserve a medal for their professionalism, creativity and organisational skills in coordinating all three clubs and the associated events.

Olu Alakija – The Writers Club

I cannot recommend the Director’s Cut Theatre Company highly enough. It is a friendly, welcoming company, bursting with ideas and full of passion for the future.

Alexis Boddy – The Writers Club

I can not recommend The Directors Club enough. Life can be lonely as a Director and the club is a wonderful place for support, to share ideas and get new ones,  both from fellow members and the amazing visiting Directors who come to the club to work with us – not to mention working closely with the Actors and Writers Clubs. It is quite simply fantastic!

Anthony Houghton – The Directors Club

The inspiring family environment that Heather has managed to create is a great credit to her, although it’s no surprise given her unwavering support and generosity.

Hamza Siddique – The Actors Club

Being part of the Director’s Cut Theatre family has given me the confidence, connections and insights to grow as a writer and explore new forms of creativity and performance in theatre.

Daniel Page – The Writers Club

Heather and the team do an incredible job of creating and maintaining this thriving artistic hub. Without a doubt, being involved and part of this creative community has been or of the best things I have ever done.

Claire Erasmus – The Writers Club

Heather Ward and her team have created something special in the Actor’s Club and Director’s Cut Theatre company as a whole and it has been done so with verve, imagination and an enthusiasm that is as infectious as it is admirable. What is most special, is that they have created a true meeting of creative minds and ideas that so neatly enables each and every person to learn, and thus develop.

James Barton-Steel – The Actors Club

I have now completed four terms at the Director’s Cut Theatre’s Writers Club and I can honestly say it has revolutionised my life as a writer and offered me way more opportunities than I imagined it would. As a writer who has done a 3 year MA and various courses and is relatively experienced I still found the sessions educational and stimulating. Heather herself is a force of nature and a truly inspiring, creative, yet business-savvy individual. She has great connections within the theatre industry and works tirelessly to help promote her club members’ works.

Carol Cooper – The Writers Club

Without this amazing initiative, i would not be the director i am today.
