About me
I wrote my first play while I was a student at Cambridge, in 2003. (Much later, in 2009, via Edinburgh and elsewhere, I directed a production of the same show at the Hackney Empire, this time with a 20-voice choir and Afro-blues ensemble accompanying the dialogue.) I chipped away in theatre for years, with numerous productions and writing commissions, before switching to film in 2016, and beginning the screenplay for my first feature, Passing Through, which I shot in the South of France in the late summer of 2019, with an international crew including Emmy-winning cinematographer Alex Peterson and a cast led by ex-Neighbour Mark Little. Passing Through hit festivals in 2023, winning the Brenda Blethyn First Feature Prize at Ramsgate, Best Feature at the New Renaissance Festival, and a Barcelona Indie Award. It was also selected for the Belfast Film Festival, Dublin's Silk Road Festival, NewFilmmakersNY and Brighton Rocks, who hosted our recent London premiere.License & Passport
