Her  creations include 'Docnite', the first full length programme of her  original work consisting of three episodes exploring metaphysical  states; 'Hard to be Soft – Episode One: Lazarus and The Birds of  Paradise' (Belfast Children’s Festival and Dublin Dance Festival); 'Hope  Hunt' (Galway Dance Days, Tiger Dublin Fringe), 'Leather Jacket  Deluxe', 'Lady Magma' and 'Echo Hunt'.

 ''My work attempts to play with the barrier between the flesh and  the soul, the audience and the stage; to share a kinetic experience. I’m  motivated to explore states of pure metaphysical honesty. To bring the  sex, the punk, the romance and the chi back into the body, the black  box, the white cube, and Ireland.’'

Back in 1972, Roland Petit created the Ballets de Marseille. Having lost  its -s, the Ballet has become a Centre Chorégraphique National in 1984  wille  be run by the collective (LA)HORDE. 

The creation and  dissemination of shows by the Ballet and guest artists are at the heart  of what it does. Very much rooted in our time, curious about and open to  the world, the BNM is also a prestigious part of Marseille’s cultural  heritage, close to Parc Borély.
