Royal Vauxhall Tavern
Programming, producing and curating the events at the RVT since 2008 and now under the new ownership as Vauxhall Tavern. I helped cement the current reputation of the RVT as one of the most successful and loved cabaret and club venues on the London circuit and beyond. The RVT is known and loved across the world and is a landmark London venue and this year was listed as a Grade 2 historic building for its LGBT history, the first of its kind in the UK and second in the world after Stonewall in New York was listed earlier this year.
One of the things I am particularly proud of in my programming and producing at the RVT was that I was able to make it a completely diverse venue, where forward thinking cabaret could sit alongside traditional performances and a space where performers felt comfortable to create and experiment. Under my tenure there as programmer and in house producer, the venue won awards for its performance output every year until I departed towards the end of 2019.
