Joe is a Media and Modern Literature graduate of Goldsmiths, hailing from Gloucestershire. Usually spotted sitting, standing or swaying from side to side in audiences across London, he loves nothing more than writing about film, theatre, music and video games. Recently home from travels in the far east, Joe is loving being back in the land of warm beer and mature cheddar. If you have some spare time, you can read his blog http://www.script-a-day.com/ or follow Joe on Twitter @joemannerslewis.
