His full length play, The Trunk, ran at The Space Arts Centre 2014 and was described, oddly he thought, as “almost literally Schroedinger’s God” by ViewfromTheGods. Recently forming Odd Servants Theatre Company, he is returning to The Space March 2016 to premier his new play “Buster Keaton at The Hollywood Canteen.”
