My friend Maggie Forsyth, who has died aged 70 of cancer, spent more than two decades as a director and set designer with small theatre companies, including the Greenwich Studio company in south-east London, of which she was artistic director and which she owned and ran with her husband, Julian Forsyth, from 1993 until 2000.
Eager to introduce audiences to less well-known European works, Maggie and Julian staged a series of 11 continental plays at the Greenwich Studio theatre to full houses and glowing reviews over a period of seven years.
