About

Penelope's play, FUCKED, opened at the Old Red Lion in 2008, was a sell-out smash hit and Critics' Choice in TIME OUT.  The play made a triumphant return to the 2009 Edinburgh Festival.

This year, Penelope was invited to take part in the Royal Court Theatre's Young Writers' Supergroup and she was also selected to be one of six writers on the 2009 Future Perfect scheme at Paines Plough.

Penelope's new play, EIGENGRAU, will open at the Bush Theatre in March 2010.  She is also currently on attachment to the National Theatre.
