Third Summer of Love by Kieran Faulkner
Kit directed the first full-length performances of Kieran Faulkner’s Third Summer of Love, a play about raves, grief, neurodivergence, and masking.

Abortive Attempts at Explaining Myself by Kit McGuire
In October 2025, Kit directed an R&D workshop of Abortive Attempts at Explaining Myself (previously titled Trans Abortion Play), which culminated in two industry sharing performances. Feedback from these sharings has been exceptional, and Kit is now in discussion with producing houses regarding a full run.
If you’re interested in more information on Abortive Attempts or would like to be involved in the future of the show, please get in touch.
Mr Sandman by Alexander Costas-Christophi
Following a successful initial performance of a scene from
Mr Sandman, Kit will be working with Alexander Costas-Christophi on script development and will be directing the full play for its first run.
Other Work
In 2016, Kit worked as assistant director on Frankenstein with Tread the Boards Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon. Also in Stratford, Kit directed a small cast in early development rehearsals for a new adaptation of the Peter Pan story.
