Luisa Amorim

Luisa Amorim is a Portuguese performance maker based in London.

She devises her shows drawing upon her real-life and domesticity - interests her to dramatize her quotidian and the little things of every-day-life.

Her work combines theatre, performance art, installation, movement and poetry.
Amorim explores themes as gender identity, feminine aesthetics, womanhood, motherhood, ageing, and gender inequality within a domestic environment.

She is fascinated by stretching the role of the spectator, turning them into active participants of the show, and how this changes her own role on stage.

⁠Amorim studied Drama at Escola Superior de Teatro e Cinema in Lisbon, and in 2016 graduated from her MA in Performance Making from Goldsmiths University of London. She is been performing her shows between London, Lisbon and Porto.
