Graham has wanted to be a writer since penning a series of Alan Bennett-esque Talking Heads monologues in his bedroom during the first year of Rose Bruford.
Having written the script for Jesus Christ Superstar's charity concert at the Liverpool Empire in 2004, he began to think about writing more seriously & is now working on a full length play; Sudden Death - a comedy thriller.
Whilst the play is ongoing, Graham has been developing his skills writing pieces for STAND UP DRAMA's London Bites show. Here are a selection -
'Raymond's Boy' a monologue about Raymond Briggs' son confessing to the world that popular children's story The Snowman actually happened to him (which Graham performed in December 2006)
'My Brian Is Counting Elephants' a monologue written for John Hicks (now appearing in Wicked in the West End) about the unpredictability of thought & memory (March 2007).
'I Do' a dualogue about a marriage of convenience between a gay man and his straight fiancé (performed by Graham & Clare Louise English in July 2007).
Graham has also written several short stories & promising first chapters of unfinished novels. Click below to read a recent addition to the pile!
