“Kate’s workshops are inspiring, empowering and a joy to take part in. You’ll come away amazed at what you’ve achieved, and excited to create more work. ”
Cassandra Jane Parkin
Through Kate’s relaxed, no stress sessions we found the headspace and right motivation to create something that inspired an audience, which in turn took us in new directions in writing and performance.
That encouragement and belief in what I can achieve has helped inform my work and led to me doing more performance than ever before. ”
