This one-on-one performance is an ode to intentional, gentle, transgressive love, where you will take away a personal love letter.

Share what’s in your heart and come just as you are. The Lover is ready to celebrate that which must be loved in you.

All participants at the Love In will leave with a personal love letter composed by The Lover during the session in response to what they share.

The other is behind the wheelchair user and holding onto the wheelchair with one outstretched hand, while crouching down with one leg stretched behind them. There are a group of people of mixed age and gender in the background watching the performers.

Biographies

Amanda Grace

Amanda Grace is a performer whose storytelling work integrates expertise in interdisciplinary theatrical practises and abolitionist psychological theory, traipsing across worldwide fringes, Victorian operating theatres, pop-up prohibition bars, shipping containers, festival tents, arts collectives, and storied stages and screens.

Amanda specialises in the cultivation of mad empathy, creating worlds from one-on-one experiences like Love In to site-specific touring work, such as Trephination for the Twenty-First Century. Her work is informed by a neurodivergent, queer, migrant, trauma-informed lens, and is built with sustainability of people and planet in mind, partnering with and signposting to local organisations wherever possible.

Offstage, Amanda facilitates with Wellbeing in the Arts, oversees Access, Care and Inclusion for Equity London South, and represents the Disability Network at the National Theatre. She curates theatrical wellbeing workshops for Spotlight, Rose Bruford College, and The Arden School of Performance. She is a member of Graeae’s Writers Network and Librarian for the Little Theatre Library, currently in residence at The Space.
