You’re Needy (Sounds Frustrating)
WORK IN PROGRESS AS PART OF CALM DOWN DEAR! 2022, CAMDEN PEOPLE’S THEATRE, LONDON Digital work in progress presentation as part of Corcadorca’s SHOW 2020
The piece is an exploration of the insidious ideology of the “wellness” industry and its intersection with capitalism. It looks at the ways in which both seek to control women’s bodies under the label of “self-care”. Along the way, it touches on sleep, monotony, meditation and medication in the twenty-first century. And, of course, Gwyneth Paltrow. It is an offsite piece to be performed in a bathroom with one performer for one audience member.

After Your Ass
Work in Progress as part of Corcadorca’s SHOW 2018.
Famed for attempting to assassinate pop artist Andy Warhol, Valerie Solanas’ legacy has been overshadowed by one of the most famous artists of all time. After Your Ass is a response to Solanas’ lost play Up Your Ass (which Andy Warhol lost in his factory) and her scathing feminist text the SCUM Manifesto in attempt to demythologize the icon behind the artist. This is an offsite piece.
