Mary Swan

Theatre Director

For two decades, Mary Swan has led one of the UK’s most ambitious and productive commissioning theatre companies.

As Creative Director at Proteus Theatre Company, Mary has staged dozens of dynamic and inspiring theatre shows, developed at the company’s home, the Creation Space in Basingstoke.

Many have toured nationally.

An accomplished playwright and actor, as well as stage director, Mary wrote and performed the one-woman show “I’m Super, Thanks”, about what it means to be a woman over forty, set in the world of superheroes.
