Sound Designer for a piece involved in the New Season works, Children of the West by Dipo Baruwa Etti, in collaboration with Paines Plough Directed by Zoë Templeman-Young. Performed in the Bute Theatre at RWCMD and the Maria Studio at Young Vic.
Borders are shut. The country is underpopulated. Citizens are required to have children. Nia, a prominent journalist, has always sat on the fence about these regulations despite it impacting her and her husband’s lives. As she seeks to escape from the country and tell the story of what’s happening in a now isolated nation, she is forced to interrogate the cost of what she’s leaving behind. What does it mean to have a significant part of your life forced upon you? Dystopian drama that explores love, parenthood, and free will.
