Andrew Teye

I am multi-disciplinary artist with a passion for creating and producing politicized theatre that challenges social norms and inspires conversation on pertinent social issues of today. I come from the Theatre for Development discipline and therefore believe strongly in the use of theatre for the empowerment of marginalized communities, especially Black and queer communities, and for social impact. I have experience in directing socially-conscious pieces. I am also a seasoned performer and singer.
