RESIDENT ASSOCIATE ARTIST
Movement Director Chi-San Howard played a crucial role in the success of our award-winning production of Moth by Declan Greene (2017) as well as helping us to develop and stage Catching Comets by Piers Black (2019). As a result, she became our inaugural Resident Associate Artist in 2021.
Alongside her work with Ransack, Chi-San is a Movement Director, Choreographer and Intimacy Director across Theatre, TV and Film. Her work specialises in creating and developing clear and coherent movement languages for performance on both stage and screen. She trained in Movement Directing at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama graduating in 2016. She has worked at theatres across the country including Nottingham Playhouse, Royal Exchange Manchester, Hampstead Theatre, Orange Tree, Dundee Rep among many others.
As a Movement practitioner, Chi-San has facilitated workshops and projects at the Old Vic, National Theatre, RCSSD, MouseTrap and Southwark Playhouse. She teaches as a guest on the acting degree courses at LAMDA and ArtsEd. She is also the Movement Tutor for DreamArts, an arts charity operating within the borough of Westminster running dance and movement devising sessions for children from low income backgrounds with limited access to the arts.
