Cameron Menzies, AD Northern Ireland Opera
ATC has worked with Diana for the last 3 years, during a period of change, challenge and high activity. Diana’s energetic, knowledgeable and nuanced approach have helped ATC weather national news and culture war storms, as well as raise the visibility of ATC’s work beyond all our expectations. Most of all, Diana’s work has helped us connect with the audiences we most want to reach, using her networks of diverse-led media to engage with media that others simply can’t reach, or don’t know how to.”
Andrew Smaje, Joint CEO, Actors Touring Company

What FOURTH WALL PR doES Differently
Fourth Wall PR’s founder has a background that’s not drawn solely from the Arts Industry and that’s a good thing. Experienced working within a broader range of organisations and in roles within publishing - on news desks and heading up feature desks and managing teams of journalists - means that identifying newsworthy angles, understanding the news cycle, developing key messages and pitching fresh ideas to media outlets across many sectors, are second nature.
Fourth Wall PR has nurtured solid media relationships across the Arts and Culture sector and beyond which will put your project in the spotlight.
