about aidan

Aidan is a spatial storyteller who works as a London-based writer, composer, director and actor. Since graduating from the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama in 2023, he has been developing his network and artistic practice.

In early 2026 he completed a play with songs: ‘The Mermaid’, a retelling of Hans Christian Andersen’s fairytale. This project is currently in early stages of research and development.

Current writing projects include a stage play, screenplay, novel, and a children’s book. The initial two emerged during his intake course at the National Youth Theatre (their first ever for writers). Aidan later joined their scheme for upcoming facilitators, ‘Creative Leaders’.

Throughout his work is a returning passion for

  • the transformative power of play,

  • radical empathy,

  • unflinching commitment to visionary, effort-ridden world-building,

  • complex, anthropologically informed psychologies.
