Samuel Xavier
Theatre Director Actor Puppeteer Choreographer Theatre-maker(He/Him)
I am an LGBTQ+ theatre maker, director and actor originally from Nottingham but now based in London. I am in my graduating year at East 15 Acting School, studying a BA Acting and Contemporary Theatre whilst directing a piece of new writing for the schools Debut Festival.
I am most interested in projects that focus on minority voices, so I can bring them to life but also projects that involve versatile performers such as actor-musicians and actor-dancers.
