Ella McGran (she/her) is a freelance theatre-maker, facilitator and producer based across London and Hertfordshire. Having started her career in the arts as a tap dancer, Ella went on to train at Rose Bruford College where she completed the 'Acting Foundation' course and graduated with a first class degree in 'Theatre and Social Change'.

 

Having spent her teenage and early adult years battling with disordered eating and mental illness, Ella's creative work is often centred around these topics in an effort to raise awareness, break the stigma and instil confidence in young people. Her current project Operation Shrink is an autobiographical solo show that explores her experiences living with Atypical Anorexia. 

​

Alongside the making of her show, Ella currently works as a drama and dance teacher and facilitator for young people. Ella has a particular interest in Sensory Theatre and Theatre for Young Audiences and hopes one day to produce shows of this nature.

​

Whilst Ella's interests lie now more in producing, facilitation and theatre-making, she continues her tap dance training, having become the Tap Dance World Champion in 2022.
