Theatre Maker - Performer - Creative

Hello, welcome!

Thanks for stopping by 😊

I am a queer, agender, neurodiverse, multidisciplinary theatre maker from Australia, born and raised in Boorloo (Perth) now primarily based in Naarm (Melbourne) since 2018. My work spans various roles, including performer, creative producer, dramaturge, director - an all-around creative.

I am instinctively drawn to theatre with music, queer theatre, and the development of new works. Building on my formal education in performance at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA) and my role as the inaugural and current New Work & Marketing Manager for Antipodes Theatre Company, I am dedicated to advancing the future of Australian theatre. I strive to foster authentic and ethical collaboration while supporting both fellow and emerging artists.

Additionally, I consciously seek to expand my practice by exploring other perspectives, disciplines and acquiring new skillsets, which I then integrate into my own work. I fundamentally believe artists (and humanity for that matter) are at our best when we can learn from each other.

WORKING TOGETHER

it's always nice to be asked

Open to offers and if I’m unable to accept the work myself, I’ll do my best to recommend other artists whom I believe would be a good fit for the role or project.

For more information on inquiries relating to acting, creative work, coaching, production, and more, please visit my Contact page.

Accountability

My goal is to create and maintain a thriving, collaborative, diverse, and empowering artistic SPACE. I not only welcome feedback, I actively encourage it. I believe in being open to criticism and holding myself accountable for my actions and words. Whilst intentions are always for the best outcomes, that doesn’t absolve US from OUR responsibilities, duty of care, and privilegeS.

PERSONAL Pledge: September 26th, 2020

I pledge to continue educating myself, listening, having the hard conversations and that I will always create safe, welcoming and diverse environments in our industry and beyond. I stand with my BIPOC friends and peers. I see you and I support you.

Take the pledge. We are all responsible.
