Filipa Tomas
Theatre Director PerformerI am a London-based theatre-maker & director with a passion for theatrical experiences that challenge boundaries, explore the connections that hold us together and celebrate our common humanity, regardless of where we come from.
I am Co-Artistic Director of Single Shoe Productions, an international devised theatre company that combines visual storytelling, physical comedy and a love for the absurd to create and tour original theatre for universal audiences.
The work my company has produced has toured across the UK, USA and Europe. These tours have included performing and teaching in remote rural communities where there is limited provision and reduced access to high quality contemporary theatre.
I enjoy directing, performing, writing and teaching young artists and I am committed to championing open access to the arts and engaging with communities.
