Hetty qualified as a teacher in 2015 and is currently Head of Drama at a secondary school in Hertfordshire. She has a keen academic interest in all things Shakespeare! After gaining her Masters in Education Hetty is currently studying for a PhD in English Literature and Theatre Studies at King’s College London (the thesis title is ‘The use and reception of engendered blood on the early modern stage’ – catchy!), alongside classroom teaching and running a department. Hetty has worked as an examiner for various boards and has had the pleasure of lecturing on women in Shakespeare all over the world (via Teams, naturally). When she isn’t reading up on obscure Shakespearean facts about blood, she can be found raising a feral two-year-old and a chubby new baby.
