Grace developed, directed and produced the five-star one woman EdFringe show, Bad Teacher, which sold out its runs in 2022 and 2023 at Underbelly and is transferring to the Pleasance London as part of their Best of Fringe season. She is also the director and creative producer of Lobster Frock’s Arts Council England funded Blueprints. She also is directing the London transfer of Sunsets at the Seven Dials Playhouse. 

Her next show, which she is devising and performing, Summoning Sondheim, will premiere as a Work in Progress at a Pinch of Vault.

After completing her second master’s degree, studying theatre directing under Katie Mitchell OBE, at RHUL, Grace co-founded The Queens of Cups, a production company focused on making women-led comedy and championing underrepresented and emerging voices.

Grace additionally holds an MA and a BA in English, and a BFA in Musical Theatre, her greatest passion. She is currently in the second year of Book Music Lyrics, a prestigious London based development programme for composers and lyricists.
