Static

Arriving in the family caravan following the death of her father and charged with sorting through the bits and pieces of her life, Static is the story of Ruby: a neurodiverse performer coming to terms with her past and ultimately finding her voice.

Static is a dark comedy exploring one woman’s experience of acceptance surrounding disability and ultimately how to be free.

She is a neurodivergent artist with long-term health conditions. The piece is based on Elaine’s experience of being a disabled woman and feeling owned.
