Ali Maloney / HarleQuinade
Writer, Performer
Emerging from a background in performance poetry and drawing upon literature, opera, masks, puppetry and clown, I aim to bridge surrealism with mythology; celebrity culture with carnival freak shows; the weird and mundane; the gorgeous and grotesque.
From thermo-nuclear hip-hop to blackest visual theatre; abstract stand-up comedy to ferocious dancefloors, my various projects encompass a wide range of disciplines, but all aim to excite, bamboozle and enthrall.
