About Me
I'm a freelance theatre-maker, film-maker, writer, performer, director, producer and HIV activist from Manchester. I'm an anti-war, planet-loving, soy boy, f*g. I write, perform and produce theatre, film and events that make your heart go boom.
I'm an expert by experience in the art of telling autobiographical stories of health and wellbeing and have appeared extensively across the UK media talking about my experiences of HIV stigma and shame.
Known for autobiographical stage shows First Time and Toxic, my theatre, community activism and creative practice have gained UK and international attention. Most recently I directed Clothes Swap at Waterside Arts – a new queer play for five actors by Liam Mansfield. I starred in Channel 4’s It’s A Sin and fronted a documentary on HIV bug chasing for the channel.
My documentary films about HIV have garnered local and international awards and I regularly reach large audiences through partnership with globally significant brands and organisations on social media as part of my activism. I was Artistic Director of LGBTQ+ company Dibby Theatre from 2018 to 2026.
My next show A-hole premieres at HOME Mcr in spring 2027.
