I'm an academic, writer, and director based in London. As an academic researcher my main interests are productivism, its cultural manifestations, and examples of anti-productivist resistance in late modern British culture. As a writer and theatre maker I'm more broadly interested in the arts as a tool for social change.
My monograph The Tramp in British Literature, 1850-1950 was recently shortlisted for the international Literary Encyclopedia Book Prize. My writing has appeared in the Times Literary Supplement, The London Magazine, Literary Review, The Los Angeles Review of Books, and elsewhere. Plays I've directed have toured to Adelaide, Berlin, Dublin, Barcelona, Paris, and across the UK. I'm currently a Lecturer in English Literature at Keele University.
