After a week of workshopping the new play Daisy Violet the Bitch Beast King by Sam Collier, it was performed alongside two other finalists during Urbanite Theatre’s 2019 Modern Works Festival. I played Josephine, the older of the two sisters (or three, depending on whether or not you believe Daisy Violet is real). It was a thrilling rehearsal process brainstorming how to portray heads and limbs being bitten off and where the magical realism turns into reality. After much discussion and an audience vote, Daisy Violet was declared the winner of this year’s festival!
