As a performer, theatre maker and director, I create my own work and also work collaboratively with Feedback Theatre and The PappyShow. In addition I collaborate as a dramaturg with NPO inclusive company Blink Dance Theatre.

I use performance as a medium to tell stories and create experiences. I am interested in theatre that happens in non conventional spaces and that uses the body as a vehicle to generate images. Often the themes I have explored as a maker are informed by my work as a facilitator. Therefore, I created work on displacement, belonging, otherness, women rights and discrimination.

This is a selection of projects.

Portrait of a Voice (2021) During the COVID-19 Pandemic, in a time of not meeting, Portrait of a Voice brought together ten strangers to meet and connect asking each other 'What do you see in my voice?'.
Five people, the Voices, were asked to respond to prompts to create clues about themselves.
Five people, the Makers,  received a box with the clues and had a week to respond to daily devising tasks to create a portrait of the voice allocated to them. Eventually they gathered on Zoom and each pair had the opportunity to meet each other.

Project created by Sam Hardie and Debora Minà, commissioned and produced by ThePappyShow as part of the R&D for "What Do You See".
