WRITING
With a keen interest in contemporary writing for stage and screen, the projects highlighted below showcase my versatility as a writer.​
​
I offer services for writing scripts of any kind - please feel free to reach out!
JAILBIRDS
​In July 2025, Roo Berry and I were fortunate in obtaining the option for 'JAILBIRDS: Lessons from a Women's Prison' by Mim Skinner.
This is truly a passion project; armed with buckets of tea, my best friend, Roo, and the most supportive author of the book, Mim.​
​
We will be documenting our writing process across both of our social media platforms, stay tuned...​
​
"During her time as a prison teacher Mim Skinner met every type of criminal. But her job was not to judge them, it was to teach.
In this compelling, inspirational memoir Mim takes you behind the bars. From drugs and violence to pregnancy and heartbreak, Mim’s classroom saw it all. With high drama but also candid humour Jailbirds is full of eye-opening stories of those without a voice, revealing the human side of our country’s most controversial institution."
THE WITCH & THE WHISTLEBLOWER
The Glitch, Waterloo - 8th-20th April 2026
The year is 1597. A woman is accused of being a witch. She can save herself, but only by condemning others.
A community is crumbling. Neighbour turns on neighbour. A town turns on itself.
A man plays God with a lie. A woman fights back with the truth.
A new folk musical inspired by the true story of Marion Walker and Margaret Aitken, in a time when gossip can kill, whispers become poisonous and speculation becomes a sentence.
Well-respected widow Marion Walker, horrified at what is happening to her town, decides to expose the truth about the witchfinder John Cowper and his newest ‘weapon’: a self-proclaimed witch. Margaret Aitken, under the threat of death, claimed she could identify a witch by a mark on their eyes…so is transformed into the world’s first female witch-hunter.
The fate of the town lies in the balance, but who will get the final word…
The Witch or The Whistleblower?
THE LOST ELVES
A delightful two Christmases spent with Cue34 Theatre Company, acting and writing in their beautiful piece of children's theatre - 'The Lost Elves' (performed in 2023 at Chiltern Open Air Museum, then 2024 at Wycombe Arts Centre).
​
"Tom and Trixie were trying to make their way around Wycombe, but with all those roundabouts, things went wrong very quickly. Tom knitted a magical scarf for Trixie, but when she took it off, humans could see the elves—causing even more mayhem and hilarity!"
​
The show was a resounding success with Tom and Trixie performing to audiences of 50+ in the Arborfield Barn in 2023, and over 100 people in 2024. Families, children, and dogs enjoyed the performance alike, with many laughs and helping the Elves become friends again.​​
CONFESSIONS OF THE ROMANTICALLY CHALLENGED
One block of flats. 4 different rooms. 4 different stories.
​​​
In my final year at the University of Birmingham, I was ​granted the opportunity by 3BUGS Fringe Theatre to take my own play to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
I wrote and directed 'Confessions of the Romantically Challenged' as a love-letter to 'Love, Actually'. It delved into the complexities of love in its many different forms - platonic, familial, romantic. All messy, all real.
​
With huge thanks to Greenside Infirmary Street, our production had a home in Ivy Studios and was fuelled by huge flasks of tea, popcorn, and the applause of approximately 500 audience members.
​
I'll forever be grateful to the cast and crew of this show, who helped me believe that my ideas are worthwhile. Without 'Confessions...', I may have purely written in secret.
“We became attached to the people we were watching and I am positive that there was no one in that room who did not see themselves or someone they knew reflected in one of the characters on the stage. Confessions of the Romantically Challenged presents an effective portrayal of the delicate balance of relationships; a quietly beautiful play which is well worth a watch.”
