who is Irina Anghel?

I am a queer Romanian interdisciplinary artist, with a focus on theatre and the wider field of performing arts.

​

With a BA(Hons) in World Performance from East 15 Acting School, theatre training across 4 countries and experience in devised and collaborative performance, I've reached the conclusion that versatility and the (whimsical?) pursuit of knowledge are desirable qualities for the modern theatre practitioner. 

​

Curiosity, indecision, and a refusal to settle on a singular field of practice are what brings design, visual arts and poetry into discussion. That and the lived experience of fringe theatre, which often involves (and necessitates) a multitude of hats worn and plenty fingers stuck in a wide range of pies. 

​

But the bush has been beaten around too much, here are some of my skills and practices that may come in handy for your next project:

​

poster design & other marketing materials

- digital or traditional media -

(photo editing, digital drawing, painting, collage, lino printing etc.)

​

mask and puppet making

( clay molding, papier-mache and wire bases)

​

crochet, embroidery

(costume hunting/styling/altering)

​

 

​ Currently, this Jack(ass) of all Trades is based in London, UK, but very willing to travel.
