THEATRE

SENSE OF HOME

An autobiographical theatre performance exploring the sense of feeling home in relation to loved ones.

LADYLADYLADY

ladyladylady is a feminist performance exploring what it means to be a lady today. Blending interactive theatre, conceptual scripting, and artistic research, it invites the audience to co-create meaning. A lady-like figure takes the stage — not to perform perfection, but to explore identity, gender, and expectations in a raw, playful, and present moment with the audience.

MOONIKA

MOONIKA is a raw, poetic dive into the messy, thrilling chaos of falling in love with her best girlfriend. It’s a one-woman show following Monika and her conversation with her phone and AI—her modern-day oracle— as she wrestles with the familiar frustration of feeling like she’s “lost her heart,” tangled in desire, identity, and the fight to break free from labels and who she’s “supposed” to be. Full of sharp metaphors and everyday language, this coming-of-age story is funny, vulnerable, and fiercely real—a journey to find yourself in the noise and reclaim your own rhythm. It’s not neat, but it’s utterly alive.

YOURS, DEVOTED

[ In development ]

YOURS, DEVOTED delves into belonging to a female lineage shaped by love, silence, and survival, providing an intimate portrait of womanhood across time and borders. It weaves personal narratives with research from European women across cultures and generations. It examines resilience, absence, representation, and the emotional inheritance passed down through the female line.
