Artistic Statement

Artistic Statement

My plays are worlds of dissolving oppositions. Characters are at once old and young, male and female, alive and dead. Dichotomies collapse in favour of a world rife with the possibility of multiple truths where lives turn suddenly and are inexplicably transformed.

I love mixing genres and am most drawn to tragi-comedies. The existence of pathos in the midst of hilarity, surprise and horror amidst what is most brutal and brilliant in the world appeals to me. My playworlds are sustained by paradox and passion so immense that it dissolves boundaries.
