Lisa started writing, devising and directing plays at university.

Her final project was a physical ecofeminist piece called Mute inspired by Woman and Nature by Susan Griffin.

1988

Her graduating project from drama school in 1988 was the British premiere of Heiner Müller’s poetic trilogy, Despoiled Shore, Medeamaterial and Landscape with Argonauts.

Lisa’s first professional theatre job was directing a national tour of Twelfth Night which opened at Pleasance 2 at the Edinburgh Festival in 1988.

Other early freelance work included assisting at Soho Theatre and Theatre Royal Stratford East.

At Theatre Royal she also worked as a researcher for Down Every Street and was a commissioned writer on Discover my Dream and The Good Society.

She was Youth Theatre Director 1988-9.

Elsewhere Lisa ran playwriting workshops in schools and directed young people's plays including for Travelling Light and Inner City Theatre Company.

She also wrote plays (see Writing).

1989

In 1989 Lisa joined Workers' Theatre Movement (WTM) (president Ewan MacColl), and ran the company with its founder, actor Tam Dean Burn from 1989-91.

She wrote and directed short plays/raps around issues such as the Poll Tax, Irish self-determination, unemployment, International Women’s Day, May Day, the first Gulf War.

These were performed by the group at demos, on the street, in job centres or wherever a political intervention might be made.

WTM also ran the Internationale Cabaret in Camden.

Another of the commissioned plays, the controversial Made in England by Parv Bancil, also went on to have a successful tour.
