Made in Dagenham is a musical with music by David Arnold, lyrics by Richard Thomas, and a book by Richard Bean. Based on the 2010 film of the same name, which in turn was based on the real events of the Ford sewing machinists strike of 1968, the musical made its West End and world premiere at the Adelphi Theatre in 2014.

It was a pleasure to be invited by Jonathan O'Boyle to choreograph my first show at The Arts Educational School in Chiswick. Together with director Paul Foster, this production emphasised moments of dance and physical moments to lift the show out of the "kitchen sink" world it exists and insert moments of movement, dance and colour into the story.
