I’m back guesting on Alice Fraser’s sci-fi, fantasy and speculative fiction podcast Realms Unknown this week, talking about politics-as-magic, Babel, oracles with riddles, and Kurt Vonnegut. You can listen to the episode here!

It occurs to me that I haven’t been updating this News page with my news over the summer, resorting instead to my newsletter as the place to keep people updated on things. But maybe there are people out there frantically refreshing this page to work out what I’m up to! To those people I apologise […]

Extra! Extra! There is now an extra show for Jackman/Phantom on Thursday the 6th at 18:50. Let’s call this one a preview, or something. Any pass holders who want to see it, this is probably the one to aim for as I think the other two might well sell out (Monday the 10th is gone […]

I love this update by Will Andrews to the You Wait. Time Passes. poster for its 2026 Edinburgh Fringe victory lap so much: When we were first designing this poster we wanted to make something beautiful that felt like an artistic statement and built intrigue for the show instead of shouting too loudly. Now the show has launched and toured round […]

So happy with this further selection of headshots and press shots by the amazing Roj Whitelock! I believe these four communicate the following energies/archetypes, all of which are energies I fully intended to lean into this summer: 1. Male Manic Pixie Dream Girl 2.

The Jackman/Phantom Soho Theatre dates are now on sale! For two nights only in our fine nation’s glittering capital, the Greatest Showman attempts to fix the one mistake he ever made. Can a life ever truly be put right? I love doing this show, it’s so stupid and it feels a lot like a joke […]

For the third year I’m returning to the Berlin Fringe! I absolutely love this festival, and this time I’ll be coming with TWO shows – a WIP of Jackman/Phantom on the 17th and a Berlin edition of Eggbox on the 19th! We’re hoping to programme a couple of things for Eggbox putting the spotlight on local Berlin-based talent, and […]

The Many Wrongs Of Lord Christian Brighty, the radio sitcom about the Regency’s most notorious rake, returned for a second series this weekend and I’ll be popping up in all four episodes! I play a vicar who may or may not be turning into a vampire in episode 1, which you can listen to here, and […]

I am alarmed/honoured to announce that Jackman/Phantom has been nominated for another award, namely the Komedia Award for Alternative Comedy recognising the best alt comedy shows at Brighton Fringe. 60% of the performances I’ve given of this show have now either been nominated for an award, or been given in recognition of having won one. […]

You Wait. Time Passes. is returning to the Edinburgh Fringe in an altered form as part of the incredible Shedinburgh programme! It’s a final Fringe outing for last year’s acclaimed hit (“A curiously rousing defence of experimental art-making in a conformist, capitalist world” ★★★★ – Guardian). I’m so delighted and honoured to be part of […]
