I was born in Cyprus and I am a graduate of Fine art I am doing my masters at east London university. I have been writing for nearly thirty years but plays I have been writing for twenty years. My plays have been performed in America and London. In my book published by Chipmunk I have published three of my plays. One of my plays I did for Resonance radio and it has been commercially the most successful for I got three hundred pounds. But I don't do it for money I love writing plays and I love being a different character all the time. Don't eat the Tomatoes was performed ten times in San Francisco and Portrait of a Marriage was about an arranged marriage to a Dog. Nothing Sacred was a radio play. Two women was short listed by Soho Theatre in their Westminster competition but someone else won.
