Valerie Mo

Valerie (she/her) is a freelance theatre director based in London and Shanghai. She enjoys developing new work, and is drawn to stories of intimate relationships, queer communities, East and Southeast Asian identities, and social justice. She’s interested in how personal, often underrepresented experiences can be transformed into something collective and universal. She aims to create work that is visually striking and thought provoking, with love, tenderness, and humour at its core.

From April-May 2026 she will work as Rehearsal Assistant on Metamorphoses, a devised physical theatre collaboration between UK's award-winning Temper Theatre and China's nationally acclaimed Shanghai Dramatic Arts Centre (SDAC), for a 3-week run at SDAC Main House.
