Writing

Christina’s writing has depth and playful honesty, often asking questions about belonging, identity and home. Her recent plays include A Way Home (2022) and Beyond Caring (2023). Christina’s work has won Trinity College London’s International Playwriting Competition, been performed as far afield as New Zealand and, closer to home, has been toured by Northumberland Theatre Company. She is currently exploring adapting children’s books for theatre, thanks to Arts Council England’s Developing Your Creative Practice fund.

Christina was the founder and company director of Off The Page Drama (2010-2021) and from 2015-18, she worked with Live Theatre to establish the North East’s first writing centre for children.
