Edinburgh Fringe On Demand
An autobiographical feminist one-woman adaption of Homer's Odyssey, Ithaca sees fantasy and reality merge in a dynamic and darkly comic production. Examining issues including fat phobia, bullying, chronic illness and immigration, this production is inspired by writer Phoebe Angeni's own experiences and aims to be a positive portrayal of what is possible when you overcome obstacles.
Summerhall Digital
A dark comedy about coming to terms with grief, Kill Me Now is a funny and heart-wrenching piece created specifically for a digital audience. This interactive piece follows an undertaker's live Zoom webinar. Her goal? To sell you her "end-of-life celebration" funeral business. After a year where many were touched by grief, Kill Me Now is a powerful and comical piece about the healing power of connection.
