Recent Work
Eliza spent most of 2019 and early 2020 workshopping a reimagining of Medusa. This involved composing and writing the music, devised with ensembles in London, Piacenza, and Chicago. Medusa premiered at the Steppenwolf Theater, Chicago and the Pleasance Theatre, London before also running at the Cockpit Theatre, London.
