I’m an Actor/Writer born in Sheffield, South Yorkshire. I graduated from the University of York in 2016 and trained as an actor at Drama Centre: London and Boris Shchukin Theatre Institute in Moscow.
I’m an experienced Shakespearian actor having played: Pericles, Caliban, Hamlet and Bottom in productions that have toured both UK and Europe.
In 2023, my first self-written solo show, Wildcat’s Last Waltz, was performed as part of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
I’m an associate artist at Flute Theatre who, led by artistic director Kelly Hunter, create performances of Shakespeare for audiences where the need is greatest - that includes people on the autism spectrum and those displaced by war. My work with Flute Theatre is a continuing source of great pride to me and always reminds me what the power of true theatre can achieve.
