Jeremy Goldstein is an award-winning theatre maker, producer, and HIV+ activist.  He is founder and director of London Artists Projects which recently celebrated its 20th anniversary, and creator of two long term interconnecting socially engaged theatre projects Truth to Power Café and This Is Who I Am.

Theatre and community activism is central to his practice, as is creating access and experiences of the arts with and for underrepresented voices from within marginalised communities.

Finding voice is of particular importance to Jeremy, whose struggle to overcome the power of his father and HIV and AIDS, is woven into each performance via memoir, poetry, image, film, and music. He believes passionately in the creation of a cathartic and meaningful space for people to speak their truth and claim agency over themselves in the eyes of those who matter to them.

Jeremy’s current body of work is inspired by the political and philosophical beliefs of Nobel Prize winning playwright Harold Pinter and his inner circle – The Hackney Gang who included Jeremy’s late father Mick Goldstein and poet/actor Henry Woolf with whom he co-created the work. For sixty years The Hackney Gang maintained their belief in speaking truth to power, and remained firmly on the side of the occupied, the disempowered and their allies.  It is these people Jeremy invites to voice untold stories of loss, hope and resistance in performances which give poignant political expression to the lives of community participants whose contribution to the social fabric has shaped the world as we know it.

Internationally Jeremy’s work has toured to Lincoln Center New York (USA) National Theatre of Scotland, Royal Exchange Theatre Manchester, Soho Theatre and Conway Hall London (UK), Chutzpah! Festival (Canada), Singapore Repertory Theatre and National Libraries Singapore (Singapore), Adelaide Festival Centre, Brisbane Powerhouse and Riverside Theatres Parramatta (Australia) Queer Zagreb (Croatia) and Leeuwarden European Capital of Culture (The Netherlands).

Jeremy’s projects have won numerous theatre awards including BBC Audio Drama (2009), London Evening Standard (2010), London Cabaret (2012), H.Club/Time Out Performing Arts (2012), Scotsman Fringe First (2009 and 2015), Adelaide Fringe (2016 and 2024), and the London OnComm OffWestEnd Theatre Award for Innovation (Finalist 2021).
