Our new project
We Are Lesbian.
We Are Lesbian is a bold, joyful dance theatre show celebrating lesbian visibility, history and identity. Blending contemporary dance, cabaret, verbatim testimony and an original pop soundtrack, it brings real lesbian voices centre stage with humour, honesty and heart.
From the poetry of Sappho to modern pop culture, the work explores how lesbian lives have been represented, erased and reclaimed. Drawing on interviews with lesbians across generations, it weaves together stories of coming out, chosen family, belonging and resilience.
Energetic, moving and often hilarious, We Are Lesbian is both a celebration and a call to remember. A vibrant, high-voltage experience that asks whose stories get told and makes sure lesbian voices are heard.
Our Green Touring in Practise pack is here!
We’re excited to share our Green Touring in Practise pack, created in partnership with house southeast theatre network.
The pack brings together what we learned while making Fault Lines in 2023 and touring it between February 2024 and November 2025 - the things that worked, the things that didn’t, the unexpected wins and the inevitable logistical struggles.
With Fault Lines, we wanted the climate crisis to shape not just the work itself, but how we made and toured it. That meant rethinking how we travelled, what we carried, how we worked with venues and how we balanced our environmental ambitions with the realities of being a small touring company.
It wasn’t always easy. We made mistakes, changed our plans and discovered that some seemingly simple changes could be surprisingly complicated. But we also found new ways of working that we want to carry forward.
So, rather than presenting a perfect model of sustainable touring, this pack shares what we actually did, what we learned and what we wish we’d known from the start. It’s aimed at small arts organisations and touring companies looking for practical ways to reduce their environmental impact — without losing sight of artistic ambition, company wellbeing or financial reality.
We hope it’s useful, honest and practical, and that it sparks conversations about what we can all do differently.
With huge thanks to house, and to everyone who made Fault Lines possible - our brilliant dancers, freelancers, venues, partners and the fab communities we worked with!
