neurodivergent punk poet, musician, writer, theatre maker & feminist show-woman.

Brigitte Aphrodite is a neurodivergent Greek-heritage punk poet, theatre-maker, musician, workshop leader and intersectional feminist show-woman from Kent.

She makes genre-crossing, status-quo defying, passionate multidisciplinary work which is free from pretension, is anti-hierarchical and aims to be accessible to all.

During Brigitte’s formative years she toured extensively as a musician, alongside artists such as Kate Nash, Josie Long, Tim Key, Kae Tempest and Laura Dockrill.

Brigitte has created five critically acclaimed shows (featured in The Guardian, Elle, BBC News); My Beautiful Black Dog: a punk, gig theatre musical exploring depression, Parakeet: an eco-punk musical made and set in Margate about nature, young women and protest, The Christmas Goblin: a gig-theatre Greek mythological family show, Living Legends (And Dead Ones Too): a wild literary road-trip celebrating legends, and SAD: a musically-driven experience about cycles and grief.

Brigitte is currently working on A Message for the Future - an early years multi-sensory immersive theatre experience.

Her work has sold out at the Edinburgh Fringe and Southbank Centre, and toured nationally. Brigitte is also a Vital Spark Artist, an experienced community facilitator, hosts and curates exciting poetry and cabaret shows, and is an occasional bangin DJ. Her expressive, multifaceted work has won her a loyal following, including the likes of Arthur Brown and Lauren Laverne.

The work Brigitte makes is a sparkly-explosive, joyous, shoulder-shimmering kick back against the injustices and inequalities of marginalised societies.
