Washing Machine A 'Greek-style' tragedy!
While doing the washing for her elderly father, one woman dives into the swirling cycles of her past — confronting psychoanalysis, patriarchy, and the spirit of Electra herself. Blending autobiography, visual storytelling, and a rocking 60s soundtrack this 50-minute experimental theatre show creates something deeply personal and defiantly bold.
💃 Post-menopausal power 🌀 Gender, sexuality & ageing 🧠 Dementia, families & forgotten selves
Washing Machine Vortex creates space to think about time, ageing, memory and families using autobiography, photographic visuals and an evocative ’60’s soundtrack.

Audience comment:
I loved the dreamlike, playful mood of the performance
The mix of humour, dispassionate narrative and
slightly surreal dives into psychoanalysis were brilliant.
It was so unique, clever, imaginative, authentic, moving and funny. I loved it and it struck many chords...
