I would have a secretary do my press for me.
Who inspires you and why?
Zoe Coombs Marr and Adrienne Truscott, because they laugh at all of my jokes in the rehearsal room.
What would you do to make a difference in the world?
In my own way, I am making a difference through my art and my performance work. At least, that’s my intention.

It depends what they are looking for. If they are seeking nightlife, I would take them to the iconic queer, performance nightclub, Duckie at (I live in London).

What are you currently listening to?
Patti Smith and a Spanish flamenco artist called La Niña Pastori.
