Linton became interested in theatre and writing as a child.

She has said that she wanted to be Malorie Blackman.

At the age of eight she moved to Ballymena, where she and her brothers experienced racism.

She studied English at the University of Sussex and soon after joined the National Youth Theatre.

Here she met Rikki Beadle-Blair, who encouraged her to write a play.

The play she wrote – Step – was about a young man working out his sexuality, inspired by James Baldwin.

It was programmed at the Theatre Royal Stratford East.

Linton's appointment has been celebrated by the UK theatrical community, which is dominated by white men.

When asked about the reason she applied for the job she quoted James Baldwin, "The place in which I'll fit will not exist until I make it".

She hopes to make the theatre more welcoming to traditionally minoritized groups, including people of colour and those from working-class backgrounds.

Her first season as artistic director started with a revival of Jackie Kay's Chiaroscuro and several other works by British writers of colour.

The Evening Standard remarked that in terms of "sheer emotional power", nothing came close to Linton's Chiaroscuro.
