ABOUT MARTIN PARR

Martin is a director of classic and contemporary plays, opera, staged oratorios, music theatre, and cabaret.

Martin has been nominated for Best Director 2016/2017 by the Off West End Awards for his production of Noel Coward’s Home Chat. He was also nominated for the same award for his production of Hamlet in 2013.

Having spent many successful years as an actor, working at most theatres in the UK as well as on tour in the USA, Martin used this as a natural springboard to directing.
