jake walton

I’m a Manchester based performance artist with years of experience ranging from The Olivier Stage at The National Theatre to out the back of a shopping trolley on the streets of Lancaster.
My main body of work has been with Powder Keg, but I am also a member of Paper People Theatre, a visual and movement based company where I am a collaborator and performer.
I also work independently as a creative in a variety of capacities from dramaturgy and performing to extra work for film and TV, working with companies and supported by artists and organisations such as Good Cop Bad Cop, Señor Serrano, Lancaster Arts, Art Council England amongst others.
I am passionate about creating thought provoking work that challenges and pushes the theatrical comfort boundaries of its audience as well as its performers. But I am also passionate about video games, reading and writing about anything other than myself.
