Emma Higham
she/her
Theatre Maker | 2024 Bursary

“I am delighted to be an MGCFutures Bursary recipient. It allows me to develop a new piece of theatre for young people, adapting the wonderful children’s book The Girl and the Dinosaur into an immersive, sea-inspired production exploring themes of coastal importance and confronting adversity. The bursary supports continued co-creation sessions on Bluefin Hospital Ward, exploring ideas alongside young patients.”
The bursary will support Emma to create The Girl and the Dinosaur, a sea-inspired, family show including workshops at Worthing Children’s Hospital.
