WTAM has 2 shows at this years Portsmouth fringe!!! And you should definitely come and see and both, but given that this is a free event, there’s nothing to stop you (except maybe time and location😅)! And if you think you’ve seen it before, you haven’t seen it like this!! Hope to see you there!!

this show was created by accident, and came into being almost fully formed - as fully formed as an art form defined by transience can be.

I love this work. I love it so much. If you're in the area in July, please do come along for a night of theatre unlike anything else you've ever seen.

never not thinking about our Pride & Prejudice rehearsal room.

🌷 In the downfall of the Other App, Wasn't There a Man is taking root here.

We're Maijai (they/them) & Taya (she/her), a duo of UK based theatremakers interrogating gender, sexuality, presence, connection through our work. Also running around in bogs.

Exciting things are in the works.
