He became an artistic associate with Vancouver's Monster Theatre where he created and performed several shows which toured the Canadian Fringe Theatre circuit until 2014. His ground-breaking and genre-defying show, "This is CANCER" in which he portrays the living embodiment of the disease which took his eyesight won several awards and toured extensively across North America. His follow-up piece, "Assassinating Thomson" in which he paints a portrait of the entire audience live onstage continues to tour to this day.
