House Header is currently developing our premiere theatre production, an original, interactive, family musical called ‘Theo and the Teddysnatcher!’.
THE TEAM
JJ Welles is a self described ‘multifaceted multi-hyphenate’: actor-performer-director-writer-facilitator.
As “Head Honcho” of House Header productions, he believes that theatre should be for everyone, and as such, he aims to bring versatility, accessibility and diversity to their work.
House Header’s first upcoming show, ‘Theo and the Teddysnatcher!’ is inspired by JJ’s background in children’s entertainment and family theatre.
Alongside this, JJ has recently launched the ‘Step Out’ Dance Bootcamp. Inspired by his somewhat complicated relationship with dance, he created the intensive programme to help adult beginners (a demographic that he regularly teaches). Using dance, in combination with goal setting, mindfulness and wellbeing exercises, he aims to help improve their confidence, fitness, and self-image. The programme runs for five days, and culminates in the participants creating a professionally shot, group dance reel, which JJ hopes this will allow them to reflect on the experience, and help them remember what they can do when they step out of their comfort zone.
JJ has worked as a creative across a wide spectrum of the industry.
As a performer he regularly works as an actor, comedian, cabaret artist, drag & burlesque performer. He has worked across traditional, immersive and children’s theatre, circus, street theatre, cruise line entertainment and much more.
As a freelance facilitator he has led workshops in performing, storytelling, circus, dance for companies such as Sam Bradshaw Productions and leo&hyde. He also teaches 1-2-1 lessons across Acting, Singing and Dance, as well as group classes on a freelance basis.
He performed and directed an extract of his one man play, ‘The Other F Word’ as part ‘Blast Fest’ at The Dukes Theatre, Lancaster, where it received great audience feedback. It is currently in development.
JJ has a First Class BA(Hons) in ‘Musical Theatre’ from ‘Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance’.
He intends to one day pursue a Masters Degree and maybe learn to drive - if he ever gets the time…
