I am an interdisciplinary theatre maker originally from Hong Kong and an MFA student at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama's Advanced Theatre Practice course. I am currently working on my independent project, "The Sick Female Body: A Devised, Collaborative Theatre Process Exploring Historical Incidents of Mass Hysteria and Psychogenic Illness". I am interested in intersectional, interdisciplinary work.
