An(dre)a Spisto makes a mish mash of live theatre, art buffoonery, comedic interventions, filmed and live filmed performance with a current view into entomology, media and its relationship to perspectives as a queer, neurodiverse, Venezuelan immigrant. Trained at Lispa (Art-Haus Berlin) in Lecoq and embodied practices with a focus on clown through mask. Dre’s work has been described by critics as genre-smashing, surreal, gentle and exuberant. 

Dre’s solo work is based on playful autobiographical exploration through physical masks (characters) that delve into the corners of the psyche. Working with thematic vignettes, live improvisation, movement, music and film projection.

 Dre’s Work includes 50 Ways To Kill A Slug, El Dizzy Beast (Nominated for the Filipa Braganca award), Butch Princesa (Nominated for Best Cabaret, Best Performance Artist and Best Theatre show) Tylor and Vincent:Pussy and Money, Tylor and Vincent: Now That’s What I Call Tylor and Vincent, Tylor and Vincent: Space, Miss Venezuela
