HOPE, A Film (Clean Break)

2023

 

The cast of HOPE

Hope is an uplifting story of personal growth and community activism, exploring what hope means for women facing adversity. Through personal stories, reflection, poetry and movement, Natasha, Carina, Michelle and Nicole navigate how we can hold on to hope in times of uncertainty, and what to do when the world makes you feel there is none to be found.

This lyrical documentary offers an intimate portrait of four women pushing back against oppressive forces which threaten to squash their spirit. It invites us all to consider: where does hope come from, what sustains it during times of darkness, and how can we share it with others?

COWBOIS- Royal Shakespeare Company / Royal Court

2023/2024

 

COWBOIS

When handsome bandit Jack Cannon swaggers into a sleepy town in the Wild West, their explosive arrival inspires a gender revolution, and starts a fire under the petticoat of every one of the town’s repressed inhabitants.

A rollicking queer Western like nothing you've seen before.

In a sleepy town in the Wild West, the women drift through their days like tumbleweed. Their husbands, swept up in the goldrush, have been missing for almost a year and show no sign of returning. In fact, the town is almost cut off from outsiders entirely, with only one drunken sheriff for protection.

That is until handsome bandit Jack Cannon swaggers up to the town’s saloon, looking for a place to hide from the bounty hunters on his tail. Armed with a wink, and with a gun by their side for good measure, Jack’s explosive arrival inspires a gender revolution, and starts a fire under the petticoat of every one of the town’s repressed inhabitants...

Cowbois by Charlie Josephine played in Stratford-upon-Avon's Swan Theatre from 14 October to 18 November 2023, before transferring to the Royal Court Theatre, London from 11 January to 10 February 2024.

I, JOAN - Shakepeare’s Globe

2022

 

I, Joan.

A cry for courage erupts in the Globe Theatre this summer with the premiere of I, Joan, a powerful and joyous new play which tells Joan of Arc’s story anew.

The men are all fighting, again. An endless war. From nowhere, an unexpected leader emerges. Young, poor and about to spark a revolution. This is Joan.

Rebelling against the world’s expectations, questioning the gender binary, Joan finds their power and their belief spreads like fire.

Join us in the wooden ‘O’ and feel the heat of the sun and the pulse of Joan’s passion. With open hearts and raised voices, dance and cheer with us as we rediscover Joan’s story. It’s alive, queer and full of hope.

Coventry City of Culture

2021

 

Coventry City of Culture

Coventry Moves was the opening ceremony for City of Culture in 2021.

Delivered at the tail end of the pandemic, Coventry Moves opened out the city to the people. Telling stories of immigration, of folklore, and of industry.

Working alongside celebrities, musicians, actors, dancers, digital artists, stunt performers, writers and community members, Jennifer led the choreography and movement teams to create spectacles of dance across the city, including shows on bikes, from a 30 strong cavalcade of vintage cars, and with 9 horses and local activists in the town square.

The day culminated in an assembly in front of the cathedral and was live streamed by the BBC.
