Description

In the wake of a relationship, a woman attempts to contain the overflow of her thoughts. But something's blocked, there are leaks to fix in her house, the holes just keep getting bigger and the water is rising. A captivating and comedic piece of magical realism about the things we lose and how we grieve them. Blending true stories with fiction, movement, text, comedy and live music. Based on interviews with people wondering: 'who am I in the wake of a loss?' Blurring imagination with reality by invoking a surreal, tender and humorous dreamscape.

A journey through relationships via music and physical theatre. Very talented dancer.

Have seen the show this weekend and highly recommend it.
The actress's ability to switch between physical theatre and comedy while exploring themes of loss and self-identity is remarkable. The use of live music, sound, dance, and projections adds depth to the storytelling, making it a multifaceted experience. The show's strength lies in its ability to blur the lines between imagination and reality, offering a poignant and entertaining exploration of grief and the things we lose.

With an engaging narrative and stellar performance, " Deluge" is a moving theatrical experience that's not to be missed!

A delightful one-woman show where the actress is able to perform on many levels. At times physical theatre, at times comedy, with the underlying theme of losing a relationship, and with it, a part of yourself. Using live music, sound, dance and projections, it is a must if you love jam :-)

"Deluge" at the Fringe Festival is a gem! The performances are on point, bursting with stage presence and killer soundscapes. It's a cathartic absurd trip through grief, and loss, blending humor and heartfelt moments seamlessly.
You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll leave thoroughly impressed. Seriously, don't miss this one!

Quite funny, captivating, very good dancer. A little bit long bit it-s really worth watching it.

I saw this show yesterday and I absolutely loved it. The performer is incredibly talented, her physicality is beautiful to watch and the show is hilarious and moving at the same time.
Everyone should see this.
***** from me!

Combining comedy, dance and original music, this gently surreal dreamscape is a place in which to become lost and find oneself anew. Deluge is a charming, life-affirming show that will appeal to anyone that has experienced loss.
