Sarah has a B.A in English and European studies (with French) from Sussex University where she was made a Creative Arts Fellow in 2009. This year she has returned to academic study after spending thirty years directing theatre and television drama, starting with a student production of LOVE'S LABOUR'S LOST and ending with the film COMPULSION, a modern adaptation of the Jacobean play THE CHANGELING.

Her research interests include the interaction between words and music in early drama, masques and opera, and the use of Ovid as source material in the Renaissance. In 2000 Sarah obtained a DipMus from the Open University. She plays recorders and keyboard, and is working on a couple of music-theatre pieces on early modern subjects.
