"What colour eyes you have doesn't matter to me. Does it have to matter to you? We all love to play don't we?"
A mixed media and timely evocation of the true-life story of Miriam Freedman.
Directed by Ben Caplan, the piece conjures Miriam's childhood experience of living in danger, hiding with some of her family in Slovakia during the Holocaust and charts her journey to London in adulthood where she discovered yoga and meditation which enabled her to face and begin to process the depths of her trauma and grief.
Live music accompanies audio and video footage, personal testimony and physical theatre to piece together an intimate, surprising and moving encounter with Miriam’s older and younger self. We invite audiences to delve within to contemplate Miriam’s loss and search for healing, peace and forgiveness in a shared theatrical experience.

What if leaving a broken marriage means losing your children yet finding your way?
Inspired by the remarkable life of nineteenth-century Cornelia Connelly, educational pioneer and founder of an order of nuns, WALTZ WITH ME paints a moving picture of the challenges of marriage and motherhood, the calling of vocation, the nature of personal sacrifice for greater cause, infusing live waltz, sacred and folk music through the unfolding drama that dances towards what may be a miracle.
