About Laura Murphy:
Laura Murphy is a genre-defying, award-winning, performance maker from Bristol, who makes text driven and dynamic physical work about things that they think need to be talked about.
Internationally recognised for their innovative approach to circus and performance making, Murphy’s work is a cross-disciplinary fusion of theatre, aerial choreography, live art, dance and verbal explosions, which integrates intimacy and spectacle. They are the co-artistic director of theatre company Contra Productions, which they run in collaboration with Nicole A’Court Stuart.
Proudly queer and neurodivergent, Laura’s work traverses the personal and the political, connecting the everyday and autobiographical testimony to wider global and social issues.
When they aren’t making theatre, Laura likes hanging out with her partner and dogs and listening to techno.
