Meanwhile, Fitzpatrick has joined from 42 where she worked as Literary Manager. She has brought her existing clients to Casarotto including Roy Williams (Death of England trilogy), Tanika Gupta (A Tupperware of Ashes) and Dipo Baruwa-Etti (The Clinic). She will report to Head of Theatre Mel Kenyon.
Tillett said Casarotto has a “dedication to the industry and to their clients’ shapes everything they do,” while Fitzpatrick called Casarotto’s offer “a huge privilege.” “I know that I’ll be learning from and working with the best as I embark on this next chapter of my career,” said the latter.
Casarotto has been slowly making changes and hires since the tragic death of founder Jenne Casarotto last year. Soon after that, MD Anna Higgs exited.
Casarotto’s clients include Steve McQueen, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Stephen Frears.
