Mumba Dodwell

Director

About Mumba

Mumba Dodwell is currently a London-based director, actor and facilitator. Her work centres around changing perceptions on who we see and hear from in theatre and bringing stories to light that are traditionally untold.

She trained as an actor at Arts University Bournemouth and began her directing journey on the Intro to Directing course at the Young Vic Theatre.

She was one of the co-founders of The Diversity School Initiative, which was set up to address under-representation, inclusivity and diversity in UK drama schools as well holding them accountable. This was done through advocating for and representing the changes that students want to see.

Mumba is the Director for our upcoming summer production of Sense and Sensibility, coming to the Barnfield Theatre in Exeter this August.
