Enjoy a performance by Matilda Leyser, a novelist currently pursuing a practice-as-research PhD at the University of Kent, as she shares her fascinating fables about transforming into various ‘its,’ including a sea sponge.
Matilda's performance was part of the 'Rethinking Fables' storytelling event at the Gulbenkian Theatre, University of Kent, Canterbury (May 24, 2025). For further details, please visit: https://www.rethinking-fables.org.uk/
Matilda Leyser read English Literature at King’s College, London, received an award for obtaining the top first across the whole of London university, but then ran away to join the circus. She trained as
an aerialist, working up a rope, collaborating with dance and theatre companies, making her own work, and performing in diverse venues, including the National Theatre, Shakespeare’s Globe, and the Royal Opera House. After fifteen years in the air, she decided to come down to earth and take up the far more dangerous act of writing on the ground. She has published one novel, No Season but the Summer with Scribe Publications, and is currently working on her second within a practice-as-research PhD at Kent University, funded via a scholarship from the Institute of Cultural and Creative Industries. She is the mother of two neurodivergent children and is the founder and director of an
international movement for women and non-binary people called M/Others who Make. She is also a Co-Artistic Director of Improbable, a world-renowned company of theatre makers, conversation facilitators and improvisers.
