Archer Eason

Director Writer Producer Actor

My main focus is on creating work that brings awareness and visibility to Queer issues and lives, as well as a focus on telling the stories of people who have suffered abuse/assault.

I had my Directing debut at the Drayton Arms pub-theatre in South Kensington two years ago with a week long run of a dark-comedy, selling out four of five performances. Theatre has always been crucially important to me, and I hope to continue to grow my skills and knowledge throughout this program.
