Linda had 30years experience as a director, playwright and dramaturge in the professional theatre industry focusing on devising and developing new sustainable work in Australian performance specifically from gendered and eco-critical landscape perspectives. She applies her comprehensive knowledge of theatre making and green producing to her teaching and research disciplines at Griffith University and is widely published in landscape and eco-critical fields. She is a founding member of P+ERL - the Performing Ecologies Research lab, a research hub supported by Griffith's Creative Arts Research Institute that supports the performing arts sector's transition to sustainability. The P=ERL team including DR Tanja Beer and Dr Natalie Lazaroo in association with Professor Julian Meyrick won the Griffith University AEL Group research award in 2024. Linda’s artistic research focuses on analysing and imagining the Australian landscape to investigate the impact of colonialism and corresponding climate change on future generations. Linda's book, Theatres of Dust: Climate Change and Performance (2021): How the Gothic trope is supporting contemporary ecological analysis in Australian performance landscapes is acknowledged as leading in the field. Significantly her practice and research considers sustainable theatre practice as paramount to the ethical application of theatre in the 21st century. She is an award-winning playwright Post Office Rose (2008) and lighting conceiver The Salvation Project, (2013, Brisbane Powerhouse). She has won a Griffith University sustainability award in 2015 for her work with production manager Stephen Rowan for Greening Griffith's Theatres and fostering ecological stewardship in emerging Griffith Graduates.
