NATASHA HARRISON

ABOUT: 

Natasha Harrison is a Movement Director, Choreographer, Intimacy Director and Lecturer from Folkestone currently living in London. Natasha’s work focusses on the context and vision of the theatrical piece in question, supporting the production by translating the world of the piece through the art of movement. Working closely with directors to achieve movement with a visceral and organic edge, Natasha's role in theatre is work in conjunction with the actors to develop the physicality of their characters in space, build and refine the movement sequences of the show and explore the overall movement language of the piece. 

Natasha also works as a Director, her debut show Four Minutes Twelve Seconds by James Fritz opened at Oldham Coliseum in 2020 with Co-Director Chris Lawson. (★★★★ The Stage, ★★★★★ Northern Soul, ★★★★ Everything Theatre, ★★★★ A Younger Theatre). As a Director, Natasha is interested in using movement as a core storytelling tool by exploring the world of the piece through the body and creating physical languages to integrate with and energise the text. Natasha is looking to collaborate with writers and other directors who would be interested in developing this form further.

 Natasha is an Associate Artist for Red Ladder Theatre Company, was the Old Vic 12 Movement Director for 2019/20 and also created The Movement Podcast as free resource for all interested in Movement.

With mentoring and support from the wonderful Polly Bennett, Rod Dixon and Kate Flatt.
