SPOKEN WORD

Oral storytelling is an act of intimacy. The audience and storyteller come together to be part of something, to not just co-create a space, but to deepen a bond. My show, The 4th Brain, is about my search for connection in the modern day. The spoken word and narrative web follow my quest to find the most fulfilling way to communicate in a technological age - through sisterhood, through the internet, for revolution. I didn’t realise that the apex of my journey was to be the show itself. Up on that stage, I’ve never felt closer to both my self and others; and true bonding in 2017 is a revolutionary act.
