About Me

I am a queer, neurodiverse writer and facilitator passionate about sharing LGBTQIA+ stories and learning.

Damien Davis

I trained in theatre in Montreal and at RADA before completing my Ph.D. in theatrical responses to the AIDS crisis. I now specialise in the history of queer culture with a particular interest in media representation. My books span theatre and TV and my creative work in theatre and forthcoming novel, ‘write back’ to my research on queer culture, the history of AIDS and queer identities.

As a tutor and facilitator, my passion is working outside of traditional education settings with young people and adults. I deliver teaching on LGBTQ+ history and culture, creative writing and diversity and inclusion. I have spoken at organisations including The National Theatre, Bishopsgate Institute, Sherman Theatre, University of Wolverhampton, The Queer Emporium, and various corporate speaking engagements.

I have been a guest on podcasts, including Curtain Call, Leeway Productions 10 Minute Musicals, Pen and Paper Theatre Company Podcast, In Lockdown with…, and others.  I love to collaborate with other creatives across all mediums.
