This Easter Zoie performed back in The Maldives in her ninth residency!
Zoie is part of a very exciting project,'Ursa Minor', a new play by Stephanie Street, directed by Abigail Graham. The story of a choir, of motherhood, connection, loneliness and transformation through song.
We have already done a development week at the National Theatre studios... Watch this space!
Zoie recently ran 'The Sound of Community' at the ASHA centre as part of their Rites of Passage course for youth workers from across Europe, exploring how and why we use song and sound to gather, connect and maintain communities.
Zoie is also currently working on 'Born to Sing', her first songbook for choirs, due for completion in 2025.

I couldn't believe the sound Zoie encouraged us to make together
I didn't think it was possible in such a short period of time! A huge thank you for such a beautiful session- I’m telling everyone about it! |

In my first few months of motherhood, making friends and even making conversation were a daunting prospect, but popping along to singing mamas and belting out some songs without any need for preparation or even much of a voice was an utter pleasure... not much beats the gentle companionship of fellow mums raising our voices to sing in friendship... especially when that includes Zoie and cake!
