Yoga for the Feet.

Directed by Stephen Bailey.
Produced by Ellandar Productions as part of HUMAN festival, White Bear Theatre, January 2020.

Annie - performed by Iona Kirk.
Bea - performed by Ciara Pouncett.
​
Annie has a smash-hit YouTube Yoga Channel; Bea isn't your average viewer. Annie has a flow for feet and Bea is specifically interested in that as she is on a long walk. A long walk to reconnect with herself, her body and redefine how she exists in the world. Unexpectedly this includes connecting with yoga and Annie. Yoga for the Feet, is a slightly absurdist exploration of connectedness in a digital age and how we experience interactions with others, ourselves and our feet.

There isn't a problem in Australian politics that cannot be solved by the PM - he has it all in hand, this little issue of the water rising and engulfing the country is all part of the plan. No boats? All part of the plan. Unfortunately for Barnaby, he can't swim. Flooded is a riotous political, absurdist comedy that pits the dregs of Australian politics against a rising tide. It confronts our complicity in how we enable policies that destroy our humanity. 

The Tell-Tale.

Directed by William Aubrey Jones.
Produced by Dogfish Studios for Wise Words Festival, Summer, 2017.

Performed by Peyvand Sadeghian with William Aubrey-Jones and Tilly Lunken. 

In the shadows, down beneath, there is a box. Upon this box perches a most familiar bird. Inside this box is the soul of Edgar Allan Poe – trapped, haunted and lost within the dark recesses of his imagination. He must face his life’s loves, writing and loss and if he is to ever find peace. The Tell-Tale is a darkly humorous exploration of the nine days Poe disappeared before his death. It involves story telling, puppetry and a crankie.

In a world of wool that sits just outside ours, three women knit and unravel the stories in all our lives. The wool is spun out; it is knitted and then unravelled and stored.
