Since arriving in Ireland in 2004 I have performed with Blue Raincoat Theatre Company and founded Company D Theatre, writing, directing and producing 9 plays since 2006, Tonight We Kill God, The Celtic Spider and The Repeated Bombing of Philip Boucher-Hayes, Luurrv! "in nineteen-sixteen", "The Ending", "A Play" and the hit play "Grooming Veronica".
Also produced the acclaimed "The Intruder" by Maurice Maeterlink, supported by the Dublin City Council Arts Office, Sam Shepard's "True West", again with support of the DCC Arts Office and "Oedipus" by Seneca which attracted international attention for its innovative and primal elements.
Another new work, "Jesus Caesar" is set for production in December in the Teachers Club.
