Hello

I am a theatre maker, performer, producer, and occasional academic based in the East Midlands. I run a performance night in Leicester called 'Performance in the Pub'; speaks at events about theatre, games and digital technology; and work with individuals and companies on digital and playful things. In real life I am a DIY punk/emo fan, amateur triathlete, whisky drinker, activist, and have a veggie/vegan recipe blog called foodthatwemake. In general you can find me online as 'hannahnicklin'. But while you're here, why not check out my portfolio?
