Tess Hills is an amazing performer - both street performance/immersive theatre and puppeteer. I had the sheer honor of working with Tess on Brainland as puppeteers. She is the kind of person that elevates the whole quality of the project. Tess is fun to be on set with (we kept trying to hide stage clips on each other when the other one wasn't paying attention) and she also brings professional guidance to the project. I learned SO MUCH just by being around her. It was incredible.
Tess owns and runs a company called Curious Cargo which has some fun shows for festivals and live events. They have a sketh/show called The Temperance Society described as, "Then never fear, the Victorians are here to help you mend your ways. They’re frightfully proper, sombre and stern, with a terribly stiff upper lip."
Truly an incredible performer. And one of those incredibly talented people who is also so so so humble. Her backbone is in play and always connecting.
I loved doing this interview.
Hope you enjoy it!
