Matthew Bellwood is a playwright, poet and storyteller based in Leeds. As a writer, he is particularly interested in the beauty of the everyday, the futility of silence, the arrogance of the shy and the endless possibilities that life offers us to change both ourselves, our lives and the lives of those around us.

When he isn’t writing, he runs a Theatre In Education company, Moveable Feast, and encourages young children to dress up as Vikings. He is also a co-founder of London-based theatre company The Awkwards.

When he isn't writing or running a Theatre In Education company, he tours further afield, having successfully taken three shows in two years to the Canadian Fringe and still found time to perform some Shakespeare in New Zealand.
