About

Hello. I am writer based in Manchester who mainly writes for independent theatre.

My plays have been performed in established venues such as The Lowry, Bolton Octagon and Contact, but as I continue write and try new things, my plays often make an appearance at fringe venues.

"Smith develops each character sensationally and manages to mask a dark undertone with some very funny comedy." - Andrew Rowe (on How To Murder Somebody and Make Sure They're Absolutely, Definitely Dead).

“The dialogue is fast-paced and concise, the actors are likeable and Smith is careful not to trivialise the delicate theme with his engaging comedic style” – Sarah Bloomer (on The Welcome Party).

“A great little piece of comedy” – Artsmag.co.uk (on Counting The Days).
