Alex has written works presented with The Arts Club, Gateway Theatre, Fabulist Theatre, Glitch Theatre, and more.
Most recently, they celebrated the production of their one-act play, Faye’s Room with Glitch Theatre, which is about neurodivergent solidarity, intergenerational bonds, and internalized ableism, and thrusts viewers into the autistic lens, a world of living mannequins, travelling rooms, and ghosts. Faye’s Room ran from November 7th to November 23rd, 2025.
The play follows Faye Murphy, an autistic lesbian who works at a queer cafe… and happens to have the power to summon and hide in a magical sensory room at will. When she becomes trapped in this room with her least favourite coworker, son of the founder and token heterosexual Chase McLure, an unlikely bond forms, and the two find themselves having a bit more in common than they’d thought.
