David Balcombe has been the Chief Executive of Chickenshed for five years. Previous roles include Administrative Director, National Youth Theatre of Great Britain, and at ITN. He loves everything about Chickenshed.

Did you know that...in a previous life, David performed with Ben Elton in his first play at University. It was intended as a serious, historical polemic but got so many laughs that David reckons it was the moment he decided to become a comedian!
