Bridget is a multi-faceted Director, Choreographer, Performer, Facilitator and Producer with a 25 year international portfolio of cutting edge and meaning centered work in Dance, Theatre, Film, and Interdisciplinary Arts


From multiple major, urgent and award winning works with Belarus Free Theatre, to the globally screened Ukrainian feature-length documentary 'Iron Butterflies', to the multi-modal international collaboration 'They Gather' exploring the boundaries between audience, participant, and performer, to grassroots youth and community driven projects, Bridget's work reaches people across a breadth of scopes, contexts and scales. Bridget's practices engage closely with people and organisations to generate strategies for creativity and empowerment that are specific and meaningful to the people, the context, and the environment the work impacts.
I acknowledge the Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea, and community. I pay my respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, and to Elders past and present.
The following provides an overview of Bridget's extensive and varied portfolio. Please see individual portfolio and project pages for more information.
