About me

*Currently appearing in BBC hit drama Years and Years, Channel 4 Great British Sex, Channel 4 Steph's Packed Lunch.
Sex &Pleasure positivity, Pop-culture critic, chants, libations, rituals, performance maker with an M.A.
I am a charcater-actor, and i curate work edible for every person who enjoys storytelling and shenanigans - my work cannot be confined to the boundaries of themes, race, gender, type, and other labels.
My practice demands a gut response with its raw honesty -truthful to the point of creating discomfort. So much that i invite audiences to laugh at my insecurities, giggle at my inner struggles and celebrate my uniqueness. I aim to leave them rattled, as I gleefully press noses on the steamy window of cliché, they are left not knowing if they should laugh with me or cry for me.
''I am uninterested in the conventions of the UK aesthetics of performance; I want to breathe and express my Yorùba queerness in my own way"
