REBECCA SHARP
Poet, playwright and musician. Plays the lever (Celtic) harp and has performed her own compositions and spoken-word pieces in venues throughout the North West and UK.
Her play Danger: Hollow Sidewalk was performed at the Arches Theatre, Glasgow in 2006 to critical acclaim. Neil Cooper of the Glasgow Herald wrote “Sharp has penned a fascinatingly complex, audacious and at times brain-poppingly clever work… A major find.”
Her work has been used in collaborative performance pieces such as Wind-harp Project with Tom Pickard, Eliza and the Bear with Eleanor Rees and at The Wordsworth Trust with Josephine Dickinson.
She was Artist-in-Residence at Metal Liverpool 2009-2010, during which time she wrote and produced her full-length performance of poetry and original music, The Ballad of Juniper Davy and Sonny Lumiere.
