In 2021, I was funed by Arts Council to make a film installation about being a carer for my mother, who has Alzeimer’s. IN 2022, the was shown at Fabrica Gallery as part of their MAKING SPACE programme. The display was a four screen installation which people walked into to watch the half hour installation. This is my 15th film work.

In January 2019 I was awarded funding from Arts Council England to support his memoir, and getting it out to industry, as well as a number of initiatives all with a view to create more awareness of Gary and his own journey.

In February 2020 I was awarded funding to write my new play.

Below is a trailer to my latest film, EXTRA TIME, starring LOUISE JAMESON of DOCTOR WHO fame.

 

The 49 was originally produced by Theatre N16, and ran for 3 weeks at Theatre N16’s Balham home in 2017, one year after the Pulse Gay Night club shootings in Orlando.
Gary wrote the play as a response to the tragedy, and as a way of talking openly about being gay in today’s world of grindr & facebook. The play was funded by Arts Council England, Gary was able to get funding and Jamie Eastlake produced the play. It also played for 2 nights at The Marlborough Theatre, Brighton.
