About Us

Meet the
bohemians

Here are the people making Bohemia Media happen: from those responsible for running the company, to those creating the content, amplifying voices and working with us to ensure that film, performance and the creative arts showcases all stories.

Founder

Lucy Fenton

Lucy has a background in theatre producing and acting as well as extensive event and marketing experience. With Phil Hunt, she is one of the co-owners of The Apple Tree, Clerkenwell and came up with the original idea for Bohemia: a network of places, both online and in real life, where people can be their weird and wonderful selves without judgement. Lucy graduated from Brasenose College, Oxford University with a degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics – but don’t hold that against her. She also has an MA Performance: Screen Acting from Drama Centre London. Notable places that she has worked include London Zoo, the BBC, Chene Bleu Wines and she most recently produced and performed at Park Theatre, London. Credit to David Hockney for the name idea, after an interview in which he said: “I lived in Bohemia and it was a very welcoming place.”

He has produced or executive produced over 300 feature films, in the past quarter of a century.
