About this listen
Theresa Ikoko grew up in the London borough of Hackney. She got a degree in psychology and a master's degree in Criminology before running drama projects for prisoners from a huge range of social backgrounds and religions. She soon realised the system was not designed in favour of real solutions BUT - she might be able to change the world, one person at a time, through writing.
In 2015 her second full length piece of work for the stage, Girls, won the Alfred Fagon Award for best new play. She then co-wrote the ground-breaking feature film Rocks which won Best British Independent film of 2020 and was nominated for three BAFTA’s.
Currently working on an adaptation of Grime Kids by DJ Target and an adaptation of Nikki May’s debut novel Wahala for the BBC, she’s one of the UK’s hottest and most sought-after young screenwriters.
