In the intersection between live art, comedy and music, Catherine combines physicality, texts, visuals and extended use of the voice in a number of solo and collaborative projects. She creates one-to-one performances as well as staged pieces. Most recently, Catherine has been exploring love, loss, guilt and shame. In exposing these intricate emotional worlds, she hopes others will resonate with the struggles, pleasures and images conveyed.

Top of PageGlory Days
Synopsis:
A visceral and slightly absurd Live Art operetta. Audio, repetitive choreography and ventriloquism aid the embodiment of personaes including dogs, monkeys and wild lovers as a woman dizzingly looks for clues about the world of human love, sex and separation. What ties us together and how do we connect? How do we heal ourselves when something breaks? GLORY DAYS are a collection of recorded interviews with individuals talking about their ex's, love and loss. These words are sung, spluttered, lightly uttered and uncovered. The role of language and voice is scrutinized, mental processes and rituals are exposed, in an attempt to celebrate the collective wounds we all carry. A bit like a warped musical, it will be messy, ridiculous and emotionally engaging. I will sing inside plastic bags, dance upside down and whirl feverishly. When the fat ape sings it is all over.
