About
​
Jonluke is a theatre maker, director and cross-platform artist based in the North East of England. As well as theatre, his practice includes illustration and singer/song writer.

As a theatre maker he creates new, intimate theatre that is contemporary, down-to-earth and plays with form, often exploring themes of class and sexuality.

As a director he works in new-writing, often supporting writers in the dramaturgical process from the earliest concept of an idea.

He's collaborated with organisations including Live Theatre, Northern Stage, Seven Stories Centre for Children’s Books, St Oswald’s Children’s Hospice, Glow Newcastle, North Tyneside Young Carers and Northumbria University.
