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, which will be at Southbank Centre’s Imagine Festival in Feb 2025.

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.
