Hattie Naylor was studying painting at the Slade School of Art when her first play was accepted in the BBC Radio Young Playwrights Festival. She has won several national and international awards for her plays and has had over forty plays, three short stories and an opera broadcast on BBC Radio 4 and/or 3. The film short DUSTY'S STORY was included in the 1998 London and Edinburgh Film Festivals. Recent Theatre productions include a stage version of BEN-HUR for a cast of 180, a blood thirsty re-working of THE NUTCRACKER at the Theatre Royal Bath directed by Lee Lyford, the opera PICCARD IN SPACE with the BBC Concert Orchestra, conducted by Charles Hazlewood, directed by Jude Kelly, composer Will Gregory (Goldfrapp) at the Southbank Centre, and the Olivier nominated IVAN AND THE DOGS for Soho Theatre with ATC. She is currently adapting THE DIARIES OF SAMUEL PEPYS for BBC Radio 4 and a new play THE FRENCH DETECTIVE AND THE BLUE DOG for The Egg Theatre, Bath. The radio version of IVAN AND THE DOGS, directed and edited by Paul Dodgson, won the Tinniswood Award for the Best Original Radio Drama in 2009. |
