Hello there to new followers!

I’m a voice actor you may have heard in that horror thing you like, or you may have seen me on stage/on tour.

Prepare for lots of theatrical and geeky shenanigans with a sprinkling of queerness.

I’ve joined the cast as the trial Prosecutor and other characters in this incredible play by Dario Knight.

When the perpetrator becomes infamous, who will give voice to the victim?

In 1845, a murder trial at Aylesbury Crown Court became a national sensation. It's time to hear the true-crime story that led to it.

'Apple Pips' debuts 21-22 Nov at Queens Park Arts Centre, part of Bucks History Festival.

I’m very proud of this one!

I play Dr Edwina Marche, an Oxford professor with a story to weave…

This is a beautiful queer retelling of Rapunzel, carefully threaded with the story of Silence, a non binary knight.
