November 2020: Recipient 003, Keziah Hodgson
We are very excited to announce the thirdĀ recipient Keziah Hodgson. Keziah sent over a monologue alongside some videos of performances and we honestly just felt so entertained by them and by the writing within them - tightĀ knots of words and rhymes, big characters, pieces that felt whole.
Bio:Ā Keziah Hodgson is a multi-disciplinary writer & performer originally hailing from Merseyside.Ā Graduating from BIMM London with a 1st Class Honours in Creative Musicianship in 2017, she went on to become a successful applicant of the Roundhouse Poetry Collective (17ā-18ā). Here, she devised her first one-woman show āAusual & Other Illusoriesā which saw its debut at Toxteth TV in Liverpool before being programmed for the āLast Word Festivalā at The Roundhouse in 2018. She seeks to be a conduit for connection by creating subversive and truthful work with a particular focus on sexuality, the Femxle experience, injustice, intersectionality, intimacy & loss.
