Pleasure incorporated is my most recent one-woman show exploring escorting and childhood sexual abuse. This piece was funded by Ausland Berlin and English Theatre Berlin and premiered in February 2024 at English Theatre Berlin as a part of their Expo Festival. In June 2025, I presented Pleasure Incorporated at Berliner Festspiele as part of the 100° Diaspora three-day stage marathon.
I’m thrilled that Pleasure Incorporated has been funded by Arts Council England for redevelopment and a UK tour in May 2026.
I’ll be touring to the following locations:
Nottingham
Stamford
Bodmin
Penzance
Clevedon
Brighton
Norwich

A bit more about the show…
Pleasure Incorporated asks what it would be like if the oldest profession in the world was just a regular office job. Drawn from my experience of escorting in Berlin, this lyrical one-woman show fuses live performance with video art to explore my personal motivations for selling sex; what it means for me to do the work, and how that spools out into friendships, relationships and society.
You can watch a trailer of the show here.
