Alison was born in Ayrshire, Scotland and even after living in Portsmouth for years is still referred to as a foreigner. Ask her and she’ll tell you she brings exotic mystery to the production. Alison has been involved with theatre for twelve years but her ‘trade’ is music. She has been playing piano for over ten years, saxophone and clarinet for nine and if you are very lucky she’ll occasionally give you a bit of folk music on the guitar. As well as music, she has credits in dance being part of M&M Dance from a young age and later teaching ballet, tap and modern stage. The move from performing to producing and technical management came from Alison’s prolific talent in schedules and itinerary’s, but seriously for her love to keep theatre a popular form of artistic expression.
