Sam Roberts (He/ They) is an artist and theatre-maker who moved to Leipzig from London in March 2023. He joined ETL only a few months later, and is keen to share his love of theatre with the membership and all those who get involved with our projects. Sam specialises in directing for the stage, but does not believe in being just ‘one thing’ when it comes to making theatre. He has written for the theatre, performed in devised and improvised shows, developed a drag persona, sung in musical performances and performed live comedy. In the UK, he founded two theatre companies focused on producing experimental and exciting theatre and live-art. In ETL he is a member of both the Funding and Workshop Planning committees. Apart from his work in theatre, he is currently writing a detective novel and dreams of one day owning and running a bakery/ bed and breakfast with his husband.
