'The Author' is subtly unflinching in its satirical attack on certain practices in the creation of art and the mediation of violence.

'I, Malvolio' is a very, very funny show, a clown show, but there is Beckettian darkness in the character. Some real darkness, some right close to the edge of despair moments.

I'm excited about the idea of an act of theatre triggering a parallel creative act of writing.

We do not need to proselytise either by our speech or by our writing. We can only do so really with our lives. Let our lives be open books for all to study.

When patronised, I'm unfortunately more flight than fight. Perhaps it's because I actually feel quite wounded.

I don't profess to have music as my big wheel and there are a number of other things as important to me apart from music. Theatre and mime, for instance.
