| Name | Deborah Keyser |
| Age | Forty-seven-and-a-third |
| How do you describe what you do? | My role as Director of Creu Cymru is diverse… at any one time we’re producing and managing tours, brokering relationships between makers and presenters, facilitating consortium working, developing new productions/events, delivering Continual Professional Development for our members, connecting with international networks, consulting with ACW… |
| How did you get started? | A circuitous route: from performing, through working for the BBC, stints in journalism and PR, to opera producing, orchestra management, festival administration… and plop into the Welsh presenting sector. |
| What work are you proudest of? | So many fantastic projects – but most recently, being part of the team that gave Creu Cymru a new, very relevant direction following the ACW investment review of 2010. |
| What’s been the most challenging? | Being part of the team that gave Creu Cymru a new direction following the ACW investment review of 2010! |
| What’s the best piece of advice you could give someone wanting to do what you do? | Listen; talk (not at the same time); think; understand; plot; DO. |
| What’s your ambition for theatre from Wales? | That more makers are enabled to make world-class work; that makers and presenters collaborate to develop that work and to thrill more and more (and more) people with it. Amen. |
