We are performance makers.
Artistic Director Mella Faye writes, composes and directs unconventional work for theatre spaces and music venues with her long-standing allies; musicians Sam Cox and Alex Stanford, along with a roster of world-class creative collaborators.
We rip apart iconic classics and chew on them until we find the parts that resonate with our own vulnerability. We reclaim these ancient stories, so they speak from the female gaze, and are relevant for our time.
