Lost in Blue – Nominated for two Prestigious awards!

In February 2022 my show Lost In Blue had a two week run at the Lion & Unicorn Theatre, London and I was chuffed to bits to find I was nominated for both an Off West End (OFFIE) Award for Lead Performance in a Play and a Standing Ovation Award.

The Standing Ovation award winners will be announced in late 2022 with the OFFIE winners being announced in February 2023. A two week residency for a solo show in an Off West End theatre is a rare thing for a self-producing artist. I am so grateful to everyone who came down to watch or otherwise support that run. Thank you!

I’m Debs. I’m a storyteller. And I make theatre.


I love stories that invite everyone in. I love stories that ask questions and subvert conventions. I love stories that don’t strive to be polite, that are powerful and direct. I love stories that make you feel something.

I love stories.

Which is why I am all over them: performing, writing, directing, devising, in all sorts of different places and forms. Have a look.

You’re welcome. x
