My first play (God Save My) Northern Soul was a solo show that I performed as part of the Theatre 503 Short Runs season 2023. In the same year I did the Royal Courts Introduction to Playwrighting course leading me to write my most recent play HOME. HOME was shortlisted for the Sheila Delaney New Writing Award and the Alfred Fagon Award 2024. As an artist I want to share work that feels fizzy, vibrant and bold! To provoke thought and examine difficult questions without alienating the audience. I want to try to understand both the good and the bad in humanity, especially those whose views feel worlds apart from my own. I want to comb through the grey areas - that murky bit in between. I find there's a power in confronting oppression, examining fear and questioning the driving forces that push us on to survive when the odds are stacked against us.
