BUT he's never done and exhibition of his work...until now! 1853 Studios in Oldham is host Leigh's work for his debut show and it's all thanks to a chance meeting on holiday and our Deggy.

Culture Club: Inside Dare To Create Oldham Arts Festival
Oldham's Dare To Know Theatre (https://www.daretoknowtheatre.com/) are specialists in working class and community theatre. For the second consecutive year they are delivering Dare To Create, Oldham Arts Festival (https://www.daretoknowtheatre.com/copy-of-dare-to-create) with a packed programme of theatre, activities and workshops, largely delivered by the people of Oldham, for the people of Oldham.
This year, Oldham is Greater Manchester's Town of Culture so you'd imagine that the local council would be keen to back the event with some of the funding they received to support cultural events, right? Wrong. In this episode, Jake and Miranda from DTK explain how despite the challenges, feeling snubbed and overlooked, they are dedicated to bringing affordable arts experiences to the people of Oldham.
