Ruth Berkoff
Ruth is an English actor, writer and theatre maker, making both fictional and semi autobiographic work using poetry, physical theatre, comedy and music.
The theatre she makes is full of vulnerability, authenticity and humour, to comfort those who struggle.
She is Leeds born and bred from a Jewish father and a Herefordshire farmer's daughter mother.
In her other lives she is also a massage therapist, cycle instructor, obsessive wild swimmer and doting auntie who is pretty handy with an axe.
"Magnetic and talented."
- Bryony Kimmings

Making theatre is a pleasure with performers like Ruth in a company"

"Magnificent. She shares in a way that makes it everybody's"
- Kath Burlinson, Authentic Artists' Collective
"Ruth's contribution to the rehearsal process is unique, she is full of ideas about the making process and is passionate about story and structure.
- Leah Francis, Speak Woman Speak
"Awful"
- Philippe Gaulier
