the project
Welcome to Things I am Not, a podcast series and digital platform brought to you by LegalAliens Theatre. At the heart of the project are 10 original audio monologues, each written and performed by a female artist who has migrated to the United Kingdom.
Recognising the stereotypes often projected onto migrant women, ranging from exotic seductress to benefit scrounger to victim with no agency, we’ve asked artists to respond to the theme Things I am Not in the style and form they prefer.
Join us for a festival of complexity and self-definition as we release these monologues as a podcast over the next 10 weeks. Each monologue will be accompanied by an original digital artwork by Laura Rouzet.
