Someone Else
– A new play in development
Beginning with the concept of the understudy, the show explores someone stepping into your role to do what you do. To have an understudy is both a comfort and threat – what if their performance trumps yours? We start to think about other roles in our lives when someone steps in to replace you: open relationships, uncertain living situations and the workplace.
'Someone Else' is about contemporary society, human value and holding on to what is irreplaceable. The work focuses on often overlooked relationships: connections with strangers, work colleagues and promiscuous hookups. It fights against a culture of disposability and disregard. It reaches audiences with levity, optimism and humour. We see that there is no way to make it through life without interdependence; without many iterations of someone else.

Shredder
– An analogue solution to a digital problem
Blending live art and theatre, SHREDDER is a show about catharsis and letting go. On stage nothing is safe, with handwritten recipes, AI slop, fascist propaganda, personal essays and redundant screenshots all meeting their end. The sentimental, the troublesome and the mundane are shredded in the hope of achieving one thing: relief.
We made huge efforts to keep the project as sustainable as we could, especially considering the act of destruction. This included second-hand costumes, repurposed set pieces and primarily using paper already destined for the shredder. You can read more here.

Stuckness
– Performance art films exploring creative block
How does it feel to be stuck? Is there a way to experience it without feeling worthless? Can the body in motion help?
Stuckness is a two-year collaboration with University of the Arts London that strives to reframe creative block. Through workshops, performances and films, we intend to offer a new vernacular for students to discuss this frustrating and disorientating state.
We see being stuck in your work not as something to turn away from, but rather to be understood, challenged and moved through.
