He's Behind You

'Screamingly funny, utterly filthy and unexpectedly moving' - Mark Gatiss 'Jon and Martin's pantomimes have huge heart. I haven't missed one for years' - Matthew Todd Above The Stag Theatre's adult pantomimes are a London institution, selling out every year. Celebrating a decade of laughter, He's Behind You! makes these acclaimed theatre scripts available for the first time, placing queer characters front and centre in popular fairytales, myths and legends. Reimagined versions of Cinderella, Pinocchio, Beauty and the Beast, Treasure Island, Jack and the Beanstalk and more combine wit, wonder and social satire with the best traditions of the great British panto.

Jon wrote 'Missing Alice', an acclaimed a standalone episode of BBC4 and the Old Vic Theatre's Queers series. He was the lead writer on Cinderella: A Drag Pantomime at Trafalgar Studios in the West End, which in 2020 was voted Best Studio 1 Show of the Decade in a public poll. His play Animal was shortlisted for the 2020 Papatango Prize.
