About Me: I am a Yorkshire-based PhD researcher, poet, playwright, director, and facilitator. I write plays in verse or with poetic flair, and I research immersive, interactive, and participatory theatre systems and frameworks. I am deeply interesting in magical realism, metaphorical storytelling, verse, duologue, and monologue.

Phalanx
All that Riverside College's five-a-side football team is thinking about is bringing a championship home - that is, until a flat tyre leaves them stranded in the Dutch wilderness. As their teacher abandons them to find help, seven boys try to get through the night without tearing each other - or themselves - apart. Night falls and tensions simmer as these teenagers wonder: what does it really mean to back your boys?
