Mytchett

Premier 24th May 2025. Divadlo X10.

Existing at the intersection of space and place, somewhere between now and then; Mytchett is an immersive and site-relational performance exploring themes of childhood, fallible memory and familial relationships behind closed doors. Mytchett proposes an expanded spatial dramaturgy constructed on a practice of ongoing dialogue with the site to facilitate  the autonomy and embodied agency of the space. this practice analyses and embeds existing spatial dynamics (ie the perceptual understanding of space in social place-marking) into a multfacited, experiential dramaturgy within which the audience can freely move.

A Walk In December

Premier May 2024. Public space.

A Walk in December explores public space through intimate performative walks, opening up new perspectives on the social dynamics in Prague as manifested in the physical architecture of the cityscape. A Walk In December was created in partnership with the space as an autonomous collaborator within the devising process. Our intention to take propositions from inherent dynamics within the public space afforded an expanded sense of agency to the site as an activated embodiment of community. The audience-participants become co-creational authors of the work as an act of resistance to the social isolation enacted by hostile architecture in urban public space.
