Phoenix is a riot of spoken word poetry, movement and music which takes theatre audiences on a joyous and at times challenging exploration of transformation, healing and the messy joy of being alive. Brimming with wit and vulnerability the show is a call to arms, investigating how we all might step more boldly into our power and our most authentic selves.

Helen Percival is an actor and poet who has been performing spoken word poetry since 2017. She graduated from RADA’s MA Theatre Lab programme in 2023 and Phoenix is her first solo show. The piece is set to the live, razor sharp beats of international percussionist Harry Lovell-Jones (Philharmonia Orchestra, the London Philharmonic Orchestra and BBC Symphony Orchestra) and will grab you by your heart strings and won’t let go until the final beat has been drummed.
