ABOUT
A writer, director and choreographer, with over 25 years of experience as a playwright and now screenwriter, with a keen interest in the dark and the hilarious.
I explore the weird, the wonderful and the queer (AKA the queerderful!), looking for new ways in which to tell stories (or not tell them, as the case may be).
My experience also includes 5 years as the Literary Manager at the Space theatre in London.
I’ve worked as a translator/lingusit for 25+ years and was the Artistic Director of two companies (Acting Like Mad - a new writing theatre company and SRDG - a contemporary dance group), and created a two-week interdisciplinary festival as part of London Design Festival in Theatre Deli.
I love working with other artists, encouraging them and helping them make the best works they can, either in my capacity as a dramaturg, or with The Literal Challenge, a global community I formed in 2015, running writing challenges that has engaged with 8,000 people in 100 countries, or at Isla de Crear, a creative centre in Spain I opened in 2021, based around the Fantasism manifesto.
I’ve done about a million other jobs (because how else are we supposed to survive), and am on an endless journey of exploration and self-challenge.
“The thing I love about Sebastian's writing is that it is always surprising. Sebastian writes with real drive and inventiveness and their commitment to creating the sort of art they are passionate about shines through."
(Anna Jordan, writer, “Succession”, “Killing Eve”)
