Nights at the Circus

2017

A co-production with Spare Tyre artist Fauve Alice, and devised in collaboration with an inclusive cast of both learning disabled and non-disabled artists, this cabaret-esque style show explores sex, desire and violence. 

I was bringing like a lot of ideas in the room and then we were sort of stripping away what we were interested in and we weren’t interested in. [...] it was like in the second day of rehearsal at the end of rehearsal, [Ellie] was like “I don’t want to do a character who’s falling in love! I want to do a character who wants to have sex!”
