ESPE Synopsis

ESPE is an epic and intimate solo performance. The dance of a travellers tale born from the fire of persecution, drawing upon ancestral bloodlines and rhythms. 

Full off strength, rejection, humour, and hope Espe is a fierce truth teller, a yellow flare of the celestial 8th House.  

Born and raised in Scotland.  She is a descendant of the Clans from the West, bloodline of the witches of the East, a child of the northern lights and a great-granddaughter of the Andalucian sun. 

ESPE’s tale questions: are our doubts mere echoes of our inner demons, inherent traits, celestial alignments, or are they instead insidious seeds sown by others? 

After a lifetime of self-censorship, ESPE embodies a spirit that defies those who presume to define her, without enquiry. 

What does it feel like to “fit in”, and what happens when you stop trying?

For every naysayer and bully who doubted her abilities, strength, and resilience, Espe dares to exist on her own terms, even in the face of societal discomfort, to challenge identity, expectation, and belonging.

ESPE draws from her multiple cultures, art forms and languages, combining traditional and contemporary arts from Scotland, Cape Breton, Ireland and Spain.  She dances, sings, plays music and crafts on stage.  

Unapologetic, ESPE lures audiences to the edge of their seats as she finally embraces every aspect of her character, exposing her true self whilst leaving the audience wondering, what on earth is she going to do next?
