He has been specially commissioned to write for a number of organisations, businesses and charities including: BBC Radio 1, Mastercard, Transitions Global, The Southbank Centre and The Book People.

Recenzii

The writing by Alex Gwyther, who also performs, is excellent - The balancing of details and scene setting is just right. The poetry and rhythm of the text gently transport the audience into this world.
An even-toned and inventive take on the material.
[Alex Gwyther] deserves more than a pat on the back - he deserves , and he is getting, an audience - A timely and simply presented reminder of a sacrifice which should never have been made.
