by Cindy Marcolina - Mar 8, 2023
Sellman-Leava’s piece was only a work-in-progress at the last pre-pandemic VAULT Festival. Since then, it’s had a run at Edinburgh last summer and a subsequent tour, growing into a surprisingly introspective and revelatory exploration of the effects of fanship.

by Natalie O'Donoghue - Aug 10, 2022

As Joe is asked to prepare for a play about domestic assault based on Shakespeare's toxic males, his own relationships start to change.

Monster is a journey through noxious masculinity, the performative aspect of it, and the glorification of violence.
