About me

 

I am a gender nonconforming playwright/theatremaker (they/them) based in London and Dublin. I recently graduated from the MA Writing programme at the RCA (London), where I researched actionable allyship in theatre producing.

A little bit about my practice

​

Claiming space on stage with live physical presence is a powerful social and political statement. It is a powerful tool. There’s an ecosystem-wide catastrophe happening before our eyes, caused by the systems of late capitalism and corporate & nation-state imperialism. Those who have done nothing to cause it are being affected first. Those who bear the most responsibility barely feel it.

 

How might an audience member’s complicity in these systems be interrogated within a performance? How might these techniques or frameworks draw attention to culpability in the actions of a wider society? How might we bring eyes, empathy, and resources to the people and communities that resist these systems or live outside them? How might we open the floor for action? The only reason left to write is to change the world.

 

As a gender nonconforming writer, I write as a voice from the trans* and Queer community. As someone who’s lived in Ireland a lot of my life (and has also benefitted from living in England), I write against colonialism and cultural genocide. I write as someone young enough to know the climate crisis has taken my future.
