About Andy

Playwright and author. My plays to date include 'Are You Lonesome Tonight?', 'Casual Encounters' 'After We Danced' and 'Boxes'. My one book is 'Around the States in 90 Days' the true story of my 2006 road trip across the US and Canada. Also founder member of NoLogoProductions a new writing theatre company that have taken plays to Edinburgh and other UK fringe festivals.

My latest play is A Beginner's Guide to Populism, which was chosen for the Voila! Europe Festival at The Cockpit, London in November.

A Beginner's Guide to Populism (2017)
Theater by NoLogoProductions - To be performed in London, Edinburgh and Glasgow in November Writer The villagers of Little Middleton are up in arms at proposals that will spell the end of their historic village. Following the announcement of plans to create Middleton Garden City, residents have launched the Save Little Middleton campaign to preserve their community and keep it out of the hands of property developers, speculators and all those who would destroy what they hold dear. Leading the campaign is Parliamentary candidate Antonia Morgan – an odd choice, perhaps, given her previous endorsement of the proposals, but this is modern Britain and modern politics, and this is A Beginner’s Guide To Populism.
Boxes (2016)
Theater by NoLogoProductions - London Theatre Workshop Writer/Director Josh and Steph live down the corridor from Dave and Gemma in rented studio apartments. Josh works in property, setting up deals for overseas buyers looking to bury their money in a city where prices continue to rise. Steph is a solicitor, drawing up paperwork for his clients. Josh and Steph are thinking big. This is just a stopping place for them. Dave wants to escape the world of local newspapers by exposing the truth about the money the London property bubble is built on. Gemma is a supply teacher who moved to London to be with him. Dave and Gemma aren’t thinking big. They’re just trying to survive. Boxes is a play about London’s booming property market and what it really means for people here and abroad.
After We Danced (2015 - 2016)
Theater by NoLogoProductions - two week run at Space on The Mile (Edinburgh) with sell out shows in August 2015. Also sold out at Buxton Fringe 2016 Writer/Director Fran and Finn are young and in love in the summer of 1952. He has just completed his national service, and is spending the summer on the coast, putting off the day when he'll have to get a proper job, and dreaming of a world where he never will. She is living with an overly protective father, also dreaming of an escape to a better future, worrying that it will never happen, and scared that this will be the only life she ever knows. When they meet on the beach it is the start of a relationship that will define both their lives, and a new world of possibilities open up for them. What they don't realise is that it's to be the only summer they spend together, and after it ends it will be more than half a century before they meet again. All those years later, they are still in love, so what happened to keep them apart? A love story inspired by real events.

Not that he’d want the neighbours to know, and to keep his new hobby a secret he’s been trawling the internet to find a suitable couple for their first causal encounter.
