We like meeting people and hearing stories and we wonder if by sharing these stories we might communicate something of what it means to be human.

Glas(s) Performance is a creative partnership between RSAMD graduates Jess Thorpe and Tashi Gore based in Glasgow and have been creating autobiographical performance projects since 2004.

Glas(s) Performance is committed to a socially engaged theatre performance practice that collaborates with real people in the place of fictional characters to tell stories that resonate with audiences of all ages and experience. They aim to deliver this type of work to Scotland and create a national platform for Scottish communities and individuals to tell their stories and share their histories in a professional and valued context.

Of their work Glas(s) Performance prioritise a professional aesthetic and artistic process that challenges pre-conceived notions of the place of communities or ‘non professionals’ within the wider dialogue of performance.
