Declare

WIP at SPRINT Festival, Camden People’s Theatre

What happens when sex isn’t a given? What do we feel we need to ‘declare’ to someone when we date and what information do we expect from others. Declare follows four couples navigating sexual desire and asexuality in an early relationship.

Monica is a truly brilliant director-writer-dramaturg. Her dramaturgical support was invaluable in developing the script and finding the heart of the project. She has fantastic ability to connect to text and character, offering new insights and perspectives. Her directing style is both collaborative and assured, enabling actors to give their best performance and writer’s to explore their scripts to their full potential. Monica facilitates rehearsal spaces that feel inclusive, energetic and thoughtful – allowing everyone to bring their full selves and express their creativity. I would highly recommend her!
