She Doesn't Live Here Anymore by Eryn McDonald
'She Doesn't Live Here Anymore' is a personal exploration of gender dysphoria, self-acceptance and self love through poetry, song, movement and influences of drag. The poems attempt to unravel and examine connections to sexuality, conditioning and guilt, whilst also trying to unearth the beginnings of gender euphoria and what that might look like. The piece is still a work in progress and was first shown at Tobacco Factory Theatres in February as part of SPARK, alongside BUSHY and other new works.

BUSHY by Isabella Covelli:
"I want to add to my body, not take away. More lipstick, earrings, decorations, tattoos, eyeshadow. Less violence. Give, not take"
BUSHY is a play about the body. A reflection on how we use our vessel to experience the world, relationships and pleasure. As well as joyful, this can be suffocating and difficult to deal with. BUSHY challenges the notion that it can only be one of those two things, asking a question rather than imposing an answer.
