She / Her

Director / Theatremaker / Performer

Rebecca is a theatre maker, multidisciplinary aerialist, and specialist in authentic jazz era dances. Since 2018, she has taken her bright eyes and big afro to teach and perform internationally, touring with some of the UK’s leading aerial circus companies.

Working predominantly in theatre with Hot Brown Honey, Extraordinary Bodies, Mimbre and Upswing and performing at festivals across the country and venues such as The Roundhouse and Wembley arena.

She began creating her first show Second-Hand Child in 2019, a project integrating puppetry, storytelling and aerial to weave her personal experiences with her interest in exploring identity and history.

Her main focus is fantasy work for adults, allowing the escapism of theatre by combining big visuals with circus to create worlds which adults can enjoy.
