Happy news for the end of 2025. I’m the new Associate Artist at Zoo Co<\/a>. Here’s the full announcement from this brilliant theatre company. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We\u2019re excited to announce our Associate Artist for the year – Sophie Woolley!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve worked with Sophie in the past in various capacities but we\u2019re so pleased to have her with us through out the year putting her creativity and expertise into Zoo Co\u2019s rooms and projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sophie said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It\u2019s an exciting honor to be asked to contribute as an artist to Zoo Co and support their work as a dramaturg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve previously worked as a dramaturg on individual shows but this role is a first for me as it enables me to support a theatre company\u2019s entire creative practice and strategy over the course of a year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s also a great opportunity to build up my producer\/ development chops, my own projects and company (Augmented Productions).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crucially for me as a Deaf theatre maker (and goer), the Zoo Co crew is as curious, dynamic and flexible with creative and integrated access as they are with storytelling. They investigate its potential with open hearts and minds, as well as skills they\u2019ve learnt over years of collaborating with other Deaf and disabled people.””<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m so glad to share this lovely news going in to 2026. Happy new year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
