Description Answer: My first job was up in Edinburgh at the Lyceum with a designer called Mark Negin who was a great teacher and I spent a year there as an assistant and doing what assistants normally do and I mean he taught me an awful lot. I think one comes out of school thinking you know things but in fact just doing them is the major teaching tool if you like. And then came down to London and started working with Declan who was going through a similar, no a slightly different process, discovering that he wanted to direct. And we started working together in a small way on the fringe in London, which grew into Cheek by Jowl.
