Fatima Serghini is a London-based dramaturg and theatre maker working across stage, screen and audio.

Her practice moves fluidly between forms, shaped by long-form thinking and close collaboration. She is drawn to work that resists simplification, material that holds cultural specificity, lived contradiction and formal ambition without needing to announce itself.

She began her career within writers’ rooms and script development contexts, including early development work at Netflix and Stockroom. These environments continue to inform her approach: attentive, rigorous and discreet, listening closely to what a piece is asking for and supporting it towards clarity without force.

Her dramaturgical work has accompanied new writing for theatre and screen, including collaborations with award-winning playwrights and filmmakers. Much of this work sits just behind the visible surface of a project, embedded within development rather than attached to outcome.

Alongside dramaturgy, she hosts and moderates public conversations with artists across theatre and film, including post-show and post-screening discussions.  

Her own writing is currently in development alongside her dramaturgical practice. Drawing on family history, North African heritage and diasporic memory, it is concerned with intimacy, transmission and the politics of voice.

Fatima trained in theatre, screenwriting and performance in London. Her work continues to be shaped by cinematic form, embodied storytelling and a sustained interest in how narrative holds contradiction.
