About Me

 

I'm a freelance theatre and short film director. I also work as an assistant director for TV and film and worked as 2nd Assistant Director on the music video for Jessie J's "Do It Like A Dude".

 

I'm passionate about bringing the best new national and international writing to the UK stage.

Reviews

 

Country Life

 

" Country Life starts to do what it says on the tin, then turns it upside down and shakes it up. Quietly entertaining, brilliantly original"

 

Helen Macdonald -

Whatsonstage.com (2011)

 

 

74 Georgia Avenue

 

"...a one-act, bitter-sweet play that packs a powerful punch... Daniel Dresner and Nathan Clough as Marty and Joseph, drive the action forward, under Paul Blinkhorn’s succinct direction."

 

Pauline Flannery -

Extra Extra (2011)

 

Siren

 

"Director Paul Blinkhorn paces scenes carefully and keeps the whole thing enigmatic."

 

Howard Loxton -

British Theatre Guide (2010)

 

 

Raving Beauties

 

"Directed by Bolton-born Paul Blinkhorn, this is a terrifically engaging and entertaining production"

 

Kevin Bourke -

Manchester Evening News (2009)

 

"...a fine production of a good play that is full of humour and never fails to entertain."

 

Dave Cunningham -

Tape

 

"a tense drama... with direction and a trio of performances that give a complex plotline clarity and conviction."
