Commissioned in 2018 by the acclaimed Royal Court Theatre, Debris Stevenson’s play Poet In Da Corner (inspired By Dizzee Rascals seminal debut album), opened to four and 5 star reviews from publications including The Guardian, The Evening Standard and more. The play tells the coming of age story of Debris, whose life completely changes after being introduced to Boy In Da Corner by her best friend SS Vyper. My role in this project included contributing writing and lyrics to the final piece, as well as co-starring alongside Debris as the second lead, SS Vyper.
