In the past Florrie has worked for Synergies Theatre, Told by an Idiot, MED Theatre and Doorstep Arts. She is also the Co-Artistic Director of One Step Theatre and Associate Director of Ravenous Productions.
Florrie’s work is built using improvisation, ensemble building and play as the starting point of her creation. Laughter and joy are essential ingredients in her rehearsal room - she takes laughter very seriously, knowing its power to connect audiences and spark meaningful conversations. Like a child in a pic n mix shop Florrie borrows from lots of different styles including, dance & physical theatre, puppetry & object work, musical theatre, clown, film and verbatim.
"Florrie has a very striking imagination and possesses a clear artistic vision, the charisma & force of character to get actors to believe in what she’s asking of them.” - Mark Beeson, former Artistic Director of MED Theatre
