New Play – Eye of the Beholder

Work in Progress

I’m currently developing Eye of the Beholder, an immersive theatre piece exploring memory, lineage, and the intimate stories of three generations of women from an immigrant family.


Blending theatre, song, and movement, the work unfolds in a participatory format where the audience becomes part of the story.

It delves into the transmission from mother to daughter, the traces of displacement and migration, through simple gestures — preparing tea, kneading bread, telling a story — everyday rituals that become a theatre of intimacy and remembrance.

Workshop – Daughter

WUK Theater Quartier - Halle (Saale), Germany

October 21–25, 2025


I had the pleasure of participating in Daughter, a week-long workshop led by director Jill Greenhalgh exploring the intimate bond between mothers and daughters through personal storytelling and embodied performance.


Throughout the week, with 10 other women from diverse backgrounds, we shared memories, voices, and gestures that culminated in a participatory performance open to the public.

Training – Kaimera Lab

Domaine de la Boderie - Normandie, France

July 25 - August 3, 2025

This summer, I had the pleasure of taking part in the Kaimera Lab as a facilitator.
Organized by Kaimera Productions, this international laboratory brings together artists from around the world each year to explore immersive and participatory forms of performance.
