The Team
Co-Producer - Charlie Heptinstall
Charlie threw himself into the arts at 16 where he was successfully involved in five back to back shows with the Theatre Royal Plymouth. This propelled him into seeking professional training and, after the National Youth Theatre and the National Youth Film Academy first gave him a stepping stone, he graduated from Mountview in 2020. With credits in EastEnders, True Things and Doctors, Charlie has also gone on to write his own shows and poetry which have motivated him to found Broken Gods Productions with a strong belief in supporting and entertaining the community.
