For HYDRA: The Spirit of Water she is wearing her hat as a producer for Jane Kirby and The Kingston Stilters to contribute a special piece to be performed during the finale. Tracey is the artistic director of anARC Theatre and co-creator of the company’s coLABoratory method. She is currently a cultural studies PhD student where her research-creation involves exploring the actor’s tools – of body and voice – as an avenue for reconnecting settlers to the earth.
