I perform in opera, theatre and new writing, and create original work that brings together clown, music, physical theatre and contemporary performance. I have been developing my practice for the past 15 years.
I love to play with classical forms. Make serious shit more weird, more moving, more vital.
I am the founder of TUFT, an interdisciplinary theatre company creating work across performance, music and storytelling, and I programme and run events at Hastings Castle.
