Bechdel Theatre is a Community Interest Company born from a twitter account I started in 2015 inspired by the Bechdel Test and work of Alison Bechdel.

Now co-run by me and Pippa Sa, Bechdel Theatre exists to support, amplify and connect people of marginalised genders in and through the performing arts.

Bechdel Theatre activities include audience engagement, performance events, social media, podcasting, blogging, stickers, and creative workshops.

Queer Diary Logo - a rainbow bursting from a pink book
I host Queer Diary events where LGBTQ+ adults re-connect with their younger-selves by sharing extracts from their teenage diaries (and other writing) for a friendly queer audience, in the spirit of nostalgia, celebration, and queer solidarity.
 

"A space to look back on our formative years with laughter and kindness... Often funny, sometimes moving and heart-warming, always entertaining"

Hasbian
Hasbian is an autobiographical comedy show based on my teenage diaries. 

Hasbian was performed in 2024 at Omnibus Theatre, funded by Arts Council England, thanks to development support from Camden People's Theatre, Stanley Arts & The Pleasance.


 

 "Simultaneously relatable and educational - Watson strikes an expert balance between including the cringeworthy teenage experience we all remember, and creating a unique insight into growing up queer in the 90’s... While the tone of the piece is reflective, Hasbian feels very much like a story for our times

I perform as drag king Dan Load. Dan is a Kingspirational hype-man. His acts involve comedy, lip-sync and audience-participation, and he's a dangerously enthusiastic cabaret host.

Dan's performed at venues, festivals and nights including: Edinburgh Fringe, DIY Space, VAULT Festival, Omnibus Theatre, The Mighty Hoopla, The Southbank Centre, Camden People's Theatre, Lezfest Kennington, Boyznite in London and Oxford, Aberration at Aberystwth Arts Centre, L Fest Llandudno, and hosted the cabaret stage at the UK's first ever Bi Pride.

Crocus is a new show I'm currently working on. 
 
Two self-declared “screaming fangirls” meet on a fan-forum in 2002. Over 15 years they stay in touch via changing online platforms, from forums, to Myspace, to Instagram.

Despite only meeting a handful of times IRL, their friendship endures and deepens far b
eyond the shared fandom of a rock band they quickly grow out of.
