Emilie Largier

Director

Over the past few years, Emilie ( she / her / hers) has been developing her own performative language as a solo artist exploring social conditioning, the housing crisis and gender norms. After training as a physical theatre performer, she is now taking her work further through devising processes, new writings and mixed media. With a passion for feminism, sociology and neuroscience, she want to create theatre that questions and investigates our social behaviours and connections within ourselves and others.

Bodies, and their relationship with space, take a major role in her work: as a medium, a witness of our life experiences and a physical memory. Feeding her work with various artistic influences such as Maguy Marin, Peeping Tom and Wajdi Mouawad (to name only a few) as well as underground techno culture, she aims to explore the chaos of our humanity and identities through an electric and political Ensemble based theatre.

She is also currently attending courses about understanding mental health problems.

She is the Artistic Director of RUCKLE Theatre, emerging theatre company based in London.
