“Rebecca Goh will definitely be a name that I'll look out for in the future. Firstly the testimonies [they have] collated are sensitive and emotionally raw... Where [they have] excelled themselves, however, is in their direction.”

Rebecca (they / them) is an interdisciplinary theatre / movement director, dramaturg, writer, and creative learning producer from London. They are an MA Theatre Directing graduate from East 15 Acting School (Distinction), and the artistic director of from (a)basement theatre collective. With an extensive background in philosophy and physical theatre, their practice straddles borders and genres – including international projects spanning site-specific multimedia performance, immersive documentary theatre, and interdisciplinary experimentations with creative technologists, scientists, D/deaf hip-hop dancers, composers, and the more-than-human world. They have trained and worked with artists and organisations across Poland, Germany, Singapore, India, the Czech Republic, and the UK.

They have a passion for facilitating data-driven storytelling, and new writing that ventures into the unexpected and the unconventional. Their work is informed by intersectional narratives, and their socio-political complexities — including perspectives they resonate with as a queer, working-class, neurodivergent artist from the British Southeast-Asian diaspora. Driven by an ethos that centres decolonial world-building, radical care, and joy, Rebecca is currently interested in the intersections between live performance, ecoscenography, creative access, and cultural futurism.

Their work has been described as "experimental theatre at its best", with cleverly created subtleties and brave staging choices.”

“The maturity and power in your storytelling is a bit of magic I hope you can retain and hone and keep pushing.”
