There’s no better place to premiere STILL NOISE than Disrupt Festival!

What began with a conversation with @cambridgejunction and @emaboswood in 2022 has gradually grown through several years of thinking, reflection, experimentation, and a few different iterations, with support from @spill_festival @southlondongallery and @theatredeli .
I’m very grateful, and excited, to now have the support of @aceagrams to bring these threads together and work with a group of excellent collaborators to realise it into a full production.

𝙎𝙏𝙄𝙇𝙇 𝙉𝙊𝙄𝙎𝙀: 𝙒𝙖𝙮𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙊𝙘𝙘𝙪𝙥𝙮𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖 𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙎𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 premieres on 19 May at Cambridge Junction. Future booking enquiries are warmly welcomed 🔊

An open rehearsal is never just a rehearsal; in this impossible paradox, can we find the point where things are blurred?
The dream project I’ve been planning with @ydp_space as a guest curator finally comes to life next week, through a series of six-hour, long-form performances where music won’t just be music, and words won’t just be words… exactly what will come out I don’t know, but if you’ll be around, you should come to YDP, the new Asian-focused art space in bloomsbury.

All the happenings will be one day only, and won’t happen the same way again.

𝙇𝙞𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜, 𝙍𝙚𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙜…

Jan - April 2026

Performances:
12—6pm, Saturday 17 Jan
12—6pm, Saturday 7 Feb
12—6pm, Saturday 28 Feb
last performance in March or April - TBA

An evolving, genre-bending performance programme unfolding across the entire YDP building.

Conceived as a collaborative framework, ‘Living, Rehearsing…’ invites artists to think of rehearsal as a way of organising, reconfiguring and reimagining how we live, especially amid uncertainty.

Over three months, an ensemble of artists working across visual art, performance, comedy, dance and sound will gather for four day-to-night events, where improvisation meets choreography. Different elements of each event will be remixed into installations that remain on view at YDP.

Guest-curated by Zhuo Mengting (@timelessclock), in collaboration with YDP curators Erin Li (@erinmoving) and Billy Tang (@billytanng).

Admission is free and open to all
Booking via @ydp_space

Thank you @byartmatters for taking these videos on my behalf :)

Last night was the premiere of STILL NOISE!

After a few years of thinking, writing, testing, doubting and rebuilding — followed by some months of intensive work with my brilliant collaborators — the work finally met an audience in its full form. Thank you so much to everyone who came to witness it.

I’m not someone who naturally likes to talk too much... But somehow, for this work, I wrote,memorised and spoke a 50-minute script (or a score, or a spell…) about noise and silence. Maybe that contradiction is part of the work too.

I suppose it is theatre. But I also hope it can be a ritual, a listening session, a kind of séance. A guide for noticing the room, and perhaps entering a slightly different state together. After last night, I felt that this might be possible.

Huge thank-you to Matt and @cambridgejunction for the support and trust. I’m so glad STILL NOISE premiered as part of DISRUPT Festival and contributed its own quiet disturbance to the programme.

Deepest thanks to @visuals_ru for the set pieces, @_sanli.esf3d for painting the space with light, @spaceofthenameless for hand-moulding the copper headpiece, and @burongz for being such a steady production anchor. Without you, I may not be able to have occupied this space. Thank you also to @lubing._.chen , @runnn.x , Sam and @hollix.x for bringing words, eyes, images and care into the process.

My heart is full. I’d love for this work to travel further, so please reach out if you have touring leads, invitations, or spaces it might speak to! 🎙

Thanks for everybody who came to my sound workshop at @etsdts_ !

First time trying out many of these prompts, and I’m genuinely moved and inspired by everyone’s responses.

Listening with ‘Still Noise’ is part of a wider research and performance project, leading towards the premiere of 𝙎𝙏𝙄𝙇𝙇 𝙉𝙊𝙄𝙎𝙀 next week. The titles are almost eponymous because I want to keep the connected enquiry visible: Who decides what is noise in a given space?

In the workshop, we asked this question outside — through noticing the missing thing from soundscape on the streets, through doors that were not meant to be opened. We sat with the discomfort of eavesdropping.

In the performance, I ask the same question inwardly. What does it mean when I am the one holding the microphone?What have I had to edit out of myself in order to be heard inside an institution that was not built for me?

When I filter my own voice to make it carry, am I doing something different from what the city does when it filters its streets?

The workshop opens one door, the performance another. Behind both is the same uncomfortable noise.

Thank you for spending time with this.

The DISRUPT 2026 season starts next week! Join us for a week of disruptive and lingering contemporary performance, theatre, and live art.

Gen X Gen Z
by Tink and Abra Flaherty
Thu 14 May • J2
Tom of Finland. Breastfeeding. Men. Raving at the Hacienda decades apart. Just the usual parent and child catch up. A show about parenting where Tink (parent) and Abra (child) ask “without you, who am I?”

Still Noise: Ways to Occupy a Performance Space
by Zhuo Mengting
Tue 19 May • J1
A lecture-performance that dissects how silence & noise are socially engineered, who’s amplified & what it costs a marginalised body to be heard.

The Thicket
by Yas Clarke
Tue 19 May • J1
An intricate, rhythmic and melodic text score, composed for four voices. Sometimes narrative, sometimes abstract & non-verbal – this text is an arcane expression of the human relationship with its environment.

Second Trimester
by Krishna Istha & Geetha Shankar
Wed 20 & Thu 21 May • J2
Trans performance artist Krishna Istha and his mother, Geetha Shankar, confront pregnancy, loss, gender, and the weight of inherited memories in this cinematic, Bollywood-inspired epic family saga.

Ticket link in bio.

Some noise is loud. Some noise is still.

Whilst making STILL NOISE, my new piece for theatres, I’ve been carrying a lot of thinking around sound, silence, noise, our affective relationship with them.

Ahead of STILL NOISE’s premiere (19 May), I want to open up some of that enquiry in the form of a workshop.
I’ve prepared some prompts and listening exercises (perhaps also performative ones), and I’m really curious to hear your take and your associations.

Come for a cosy afternoon session on 4 May (it’s a Bank Holiday Monday) !

Thanks @etsdts_ for hosting - a real community space that nourishes both the stomach and the mind 🌯

The workshop is pay what you can via link in bio.
If money is a barrier, feel free to DM me.
