about me

In the course of the last thirty years I have been an actor, a writer, a theatre producer, a singer-songwriter, a Theatrical Agent, a Business Advisor, a Director of Marketing, Director of Strategy for a national charity, and managing director of a manufacturing company.
As an actor I wrote and performed a one-man play Judas, Judas which toured the UK, USA and European Festivals. I was in the first production of Messiah by Martin Sherman (Hampstead and West End). I did radio for BBC World Service, and an assortment of unmemorable roles in rep and television.
I was Executive Producer for Lumiere & Son Theatre Company in the early 90’s, producing shows in theatres, swimming pools, and a park in Athens!

Peppermint

Keith Gilbey

Do not fear that what you have lost has gone forever; you will find on the inside what the outside has taken away


Peppermint: Written in a unique style that captures the mind of a six year old boy as well as others who are going through grief, Peppermint sometimes tempts you to laugh, and sometimes will make you want to cry.

A six year old boy loses his Mother. He travels to Timbuktu - which is where his Mother always said she was going whenever he asked where she was going. It is not easy to travel to Timbuktu when you are six years old and you have no money. And you have lost your Mother.


Peppermint: The Doctor has lost his wife in a car accident. Why should he carry on without her? Why can he find no answers to his question: Why is death?


Peppermint: Where ants and giraffes and birds all have secrets to share.

Peppermint: An uplifting story about how the love we hold inside keeps alive the loves we have lost.

Peppermint: Living on is never easy; but living is what life is all about.
