I’m so excited to be premiering my latest performance, Read The Room, at REDCAT this November for their annual NOW Festival. It’s always been my dream to perform there, and I’m REALLY excited about the work that I’ll be sharing. In order to make it possible, I need some additional financial support. I’m trying to raise $3,800 by 10/10 so that I can compensate my fabulous Assistant Director Amrita Dhaliwal & lead actor Joshua Kilcoyne ❤️ as well as a costumer/stylist, graphic designer, movement director & support with documentation.
If you’re able to spare anything from $5 to $3,800 :) I’d really appreciate your support! Anything helps!
THANK YOU for donating and/or sharing and for being the best & most supportive community. Hugs❤️

READ THE ROOM
World Premiere
Framed as a theatrical rehearsal between an Actor and her Director, Read The Room reconsiders these roles and their relationship to the audience in an unsettling, comedic, and outrageous experience. Interdisciplinary artist Sophia Cleary investigates the tension between script and improvisation in theater and the illusion of control in a performance that embraces liveness: you cannot fast forward or rewind–you can only move without knowing what comes next. This two-hander play manifests as a metaphor for the contemporary climate where fact and fiction are no longer discernible and investigates what laughter seemingly condones–ultimately calling attention to what contracts can be upended rather than consumed as spectacle.
Written and Directed by Sophia Cleary
Assistant Directed by Amrita Dhaliwal
