I got the bottom half filled in but had to reveal the top half. You picked a very tough grid layout to fill and filled it, which is impressive. If you want help with your next puzzle, whether choosing a theme or something else, feel free to get in touch.
Nice job getting this one to fill! I'll echo being thrown off by the grammatical mismatch in some of the clues. I would have liked to see the one themer clued without reference to the revealer.
