Nick Llewellyn

Artistic Director and Co-CEO

Nick is behind so much of what we do at Access All Areas.

After taking over and reshaping the company in 2008, he co-founded Access All Areas’ Performance Making Diploma at Royal Central School of Speech & Drama, where he is still a visiting lecturer.

Nick has devised, directed or co-directed most of our productions, including A Small Enclosed room with Alfie Murphy, unReal City, The Interrogation, MADHOUSE re:exit, and The Misfit Analysis. He also directed numerous community shows for our Black Cab Company (formerly Rainbow Drama).

Previously, he was Artistic Director at Hackney Shed, Outreach Officer at Hijinx Theatre, and ran the self advocacy consultancy company Advocreate.

Nick has an MA Performance Making and BA (hons) Drama and Education.

As an advocate for inclusion Nick takes part in many talks and panels, and has worked on artistic projects across Europe through AAA’s consultancy programme.

At the heart of Nick’s practice is co-creation, and he makes sure it’s part of Access All Areas’s DNA.
