Acting Reel
Physical Theatre Reel
“A daring display of vulnerability”
“Funny, heartfelt and unafraid of emotional whiplash”
“It's acting that leaves bruises on the bodies and souls of the actors as well as the audience… every move made, glance or statement is permeated with authenticity."
"Sirois is alternately heartbreaking and delightful as the easily-illusioned Nina, a bird lining up to be shot time after time."
"I'm told Fernando Arrabal, now in his 80s, made a special trip to America to see Dirt [Contained] perform his play. Having seen this extraordinary cast, led by the at once nymph-like and ferocious Tana Sirois, I can see why."
