I am an artist based between London and Glasgow, creating and touring award-winning performance locally, nationally, and internationally since 2011. My work straddles experimental theatre, live art, film, cabaret, children’s theatre and socially engaged practices. 

My process involves research and live experimentation to discover conceptual forms for each work that speak to the inquiry I'm dealing with. I enjoy creating frameworks that invite people to step beyond the boundaries they normally act within, giving audiences/participants embodied experiences and unexpected viewpoints they may not encounter or feel able to partake in elsewhere - be that holding hands with a stranger in public (Walking:Holding), receiving an intimate lap dance (My Big Sister Taught Me This Lap Dance), or singing a long to a giant labia lip syncing mouth (Drag Mother). I’m curious about the ways live performance can expand the boundaries of our lives, move us into new realms of possibility, and open up space for wider understanding of ourselves, and each other.

I am one half of performance company Cade & MacAskill, with whom I created the award winning international hit show, 'The Making of Pinocchio'. Our collaboration is born from a shared love of subversive humour, experimentation with persona and text, playful theatricality, and the joy we find in improvising together; as well as a passion for LGBTQIA+ rights and culture. We work with regular collaborators Yas Clarke and Tim Spooner to create strange and rich aesthetic worlds on stage, often embedding cameras and live feed into the work.

I am the co-founder of Buzzcut - a leading organisation for supporting radical experimental performance in Scotland, which I ran from 2012 - 2017. I have a passion for creating and hosting community spaces, and finding alternative support structures between artists.

I have experience co-devising and performing in other artists’ work, such as Nic Green and Jo Bannon, and I regularly collaborate on projects as a dramaturg, director, or outside eye most recently in a long term collaboration with Tink Flaherty.
