Performance Anxiety

Dr Maren Thom has worked in film and theatre, and teaches film, speech and stage-work at university level. Her research and writing focuses on performance and representation as both social and artistic concepts. After working in academia she is now a freelance writer and leads acting workshops for teaching staff at universities.

Alex is the other half of Performance Anxiety. He gave up being a deeply frustrated child actor to became a deeply frustrated adult improviser, before giving that up too. He now agrees with everything Maren says.
