Performance
I create character comedy and interactive performance art.
I write and perform comedy, clown, immersive theatre and interactive live art. I create quirky worlds, dark characters and audience interaction, inhabiting an awkward space between reality and fiction.. Some call it comedy; others say it’s performance art. I use humour, satire and audience interaction to create funny work that challenges the audience, asks important questions and pushes the edges of what a comedy experience can be, Sounds serious, but you wouldn’t realise it at the time. It’s all very silly!
Highlights include Ticked Off, performed at The Space Theatre, funded by Arts Council (England), Mike Moe Money’s sell-out pandemic zoom shows and an appearance on BBC3’s Things Not To Say To A Scottish Person,.

Ticked Off / Mr Good Name
Monologue
Ticked Off is a thoughtful, funny monologue exploring identity, politics, dating and antisemitism. Originally a TV documentary proposal, then a standup comedy routine, in 2021 Ticked Off was commissioned as a fast turnaround piece for “stage” by The Space Theatre’s Who Can I Be online festival, funded by The Arts Recovery Fund. I am now adapting this stage script into a documentary/comedy film: Mr Good Name.
