But it wasn’t until my Creative Writing degree that I dipped my toes int o playwriting properly. Discovering how words shift when spoken\, performe d\, embodied—it opened up a whole new layer of storytelling that I insta ntly fell in love with.\n\n \;\n\nThat love deepened last May during t he Springboard Festival at the Criterion Theatre\, where I took on my firs t acting role since high school in Fcking Feminists* by the brilliant Rose Lewenstein. Stepping onto that stage wasn’t just a return to performanc e—it was a realisation. Up until that point\, I believed my voice in the arts existed only through writing. But being in the cast\, collaborating in rehearsals\, and becoming part of something bigger than myself made me realise I could contribute to powerful work in more than one way.\n\n  \;\n\nFcking Feminists* became a turning point for me. The play explores t hemes of identity\, womanhood\, and intersectionality—topics that sit ri ght at the core of who I am and what I stand for. Being part of a project that tackled such urgent\, messy\, necessary conversations was the kind of work I always wanted to be involved in. And it lit a fire in me—not jus t for performing\, but for producing and building the spaces where these s tories can be told.\n\n \;\n\nIt was during this show that I found my love for the production process—the late-night rehearsals\, the shared a drenaline\, the collective vulnerability\, and the pure magic of watching words become flesh. It’s miles away from any 9-to-5 I’ve ever done. Th is experience didn’t just affirm my place in theatre—it expanded it. A nd that’s when I realised: I don’t just want to tell stories. I want t o make them happen.\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://cassfloresca.com/wp-content/uploads/2025 /06/PHOTO-2024-05-11-21-12-50.jpg CATEGORIES:Art Showcases END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
