Catriona Lexy Campbell's headshot

I have worked as a writer and theatre artist for many years, primarily in Scottish Gaelic. I have a number of published works including novels, plays, poetry and books for children.

I have delivered workshops in creative writing and theatre skills to a broad range of participants across Scotland and internationally with organisations including Fèisean nan Gàidheal, TAG Theatre, Glasgow Life, Storlann, The Gaelic Books Council and Theatre Gu Leòr. I aim to foster a warm and relaxed environment in my workshops wherein participants can explore new ideas and express themselves creatively. I am also available to deliver talks and readings of my work. (Photo credit: Sarah Mackenzie)
