Dr. Andrea Smith is a Lecturer in English and Creative Writing at the University of Suffolk within the School of Business, Arts, Social Sciences and Technology. Transitioning from a thirty-year journalism career including work at Suffolk newspapers and the BBC, she brings practical media experience to her academic role while maintaining active connections with broadcasting institutions. PhD: 'Look with thine ears': A Century of Shakespeare's Plays on BBC Radio, University of East Anglia, 2022 MA in English (Distinction), Open University, 2019 BA in English Literature (2:1), Open University, 2016 Dr. Smith's research centers on radio drama adaptations of Shakespeare's works, examining how stage texts translate to audio-only formats and how listening rather than watching unlocks textual understanding. She investigates what audio productions reveal about the auditory experience of original theatrical stagings, emphasizing Shakespeare's linguistic primacy. Her work explores representation issues including gender dynamics in casting traditions and racial portrayal in adaptations like Othello. Her scholarly output shows a clear trajectory from historical analysis of BBC radio drama (1920s-present) toward contemporary issues of diversity, accessibility, and technological adaptation. Recent publications demonstrate growing interest in how accents function to differentiate characters in audio drama and how silent or marginalized characters can be amplified through sound design rather than visual cues. Dr. Smith actively engages with professional communities through key roles: Fellow of Advance HE Trustee of the British Shakespeare Association Member of the Wolsey 550 Project Board As an educator, she teaches undergraduate theatre and Shakespeare modules alongside employability-focused courses covering journalism, public relations writing, and social media. She also directs the Writers in Residence module for MA Creative and Critical Writing students, facilitating community partnerships.
