Hello! My name is Sammy. I’m a multidisciplinary (theatre, visual & literary) artist & Fringe Theatre producer,

 

I set up Covered In Jam in order to get my own show, That’s Not My Name, taken seriously in this life and since 2022 have co-produced 2 sell out & Ace Funded UK Tours, an Edinburgh Fringe season, and a Mad Forum with Theatre Deli in association with ASYLUM ARTS. My show spanned 4 years to critical acclaim and many, MANY audience walkouts. I now use my company for various means, including theatre making, production support & exhibition facilitation.

 

I have been a resident artist with both The Camden People’s Theatre and Harlow Playhouse, and have also produced various independent projects (Linda (?) by Eleanor Brewster (The Camden People's Theatre, Brighton Fringe; SPUDS (Brighton Fringe & Camden Fringe); Let The Bitch Out with Fury Entertainment and Eleanor Brewster (The Golden Goose Theatre); The Sticky Bits Scratch (The Rosemary Branch, The Pen Theatre)).

 

I am queer, neurodivergent and here to either collaborate with others creatively or assist with the parts of producing work that I wish someone had done so with me when I started. Since 2022, I have worked with Nottingham Playhouse, The Pleasance, Camden People's Theatre, Wales Millennium Centre, The Old Fire Station and Colchester Arts Centre, to name a handful of venues. 

 

I believe in work which surpasses the notions of "art", is highly satirical and (especially) is made by disabled or mad artists. I want to support art which amplifies queer voices and am interested specifically in providing means to support underfunded and underrepresented artists. 

 

Oh and ignore the state of these web pages - I am very, very bad at making websites. But very, very good at making theatre.
