The Other Potter
Amal GrEy
Creator of The Other Potter
Amal is the writer, composer, director, set designer, stage manager, and producer of The Other Potter which is based on her original concept. Amal’s vision for The Other Potter comes from a love of Beatrix Potter’s stories and the story of her life and family. Very little is known about Bertie Potter which is why uncovering this lesser known tale was so enticing.
Adam Darts
Creator of The Other Potter
Adam is the writer, composer and musical director of The Other Potter. Adam has loved brining this original story alive, and has poured his energy into making the score and orchestration bring to life the magic of Beatrix Potter and her family.
