Podcast: Alice Christina-Corrigan

This is the front of an artist announcement card for Alice. The design is styled on an American baseball card. The card has a thin white border and the rest of the card is black with turquoise accents. On the left hand corner, there is a triangular cross section of a photo of Alice. A portrait photograph, Alice wears clear circle glasses, a purple and white striped T-shirt with her hair half up half down. To the right of the photo, there is the artist's name, Alice, pronouns, she/her, website, www.linktr.ee/alicechristinacorrigan, and artistic practice, Composer & Performer. Below this is a short artist biography, which reads A North-west based artist passionate about breaking accessible barriers within theatre by embedding sound design, creative captioning and animation work. In a turquoise rectangle below this, the card highlights what the artist’s role is within CRIPtic. For Alice this reads creator/performer of a one woman show titled ‘Past Life’. Below this are the artist’s social media handles @aliceccorrigan, and a quote selected by the artist. This reads: The future of theatre is accessible.

CRIPticArts: Broadening our Practice
