I'm Eleanor.
I am a writer and director for the stage and screen.
I track down stories, and let them decide what form they take.
Stories that revalue the feminine, in all its rage and softness.
That reflect the wild complexity of the tribe of women who raised me.
That find beauty in the vulnerable.
That can play with form and genre in interesting ways.
Have a look at my work.
Things I’m quite proud of:
Created a short film, Vlogger, via the BBC’s New Creatives Scheme. It was broadcast on BBC4 and can be watched here.
Written a play called Security that was chosen by Award Winning company Papatango for a rehearsed reading.
Founded company Palomar Theatre. Our debut production, Darlings, premiered at the Edinburgh fringe festival to multiple four star reviews.
Graduated from the University of the West of England with a first in Drama and Writing. I was awarded the University's prize for outstanding contribution to Drama.
