See here reviews for her most recent work: DEGENERATE
What starts as a vampire doing a tight five slowly devolves into truths and madness about the idea of coming to terms with becoming a middle-aged woman...Degenerate takes the audience on a whimsically scary ride of someone else’s subconscious. While the whole show really worked for me, the final 10 to 15 minutes really sealed the deal."
"Degenerate is the Midsommar of stand-up comedy.
A whirlwind of vampires, trust falls & awkward “amateur” comedy, @NotATestTheatre cleverly deconstructs the stand-up gig format. Energetic & endlessly witty, @mtcreasey weighs middle age vs. living forever, whilst highlighting the absurdity of performance itself.

Rory Foster is a co founder of theatre collective FILTHpresents
See here reviews for FILTHpresent's A WOMAN IN SEARCH
In the end the answers to the questions posed sit in the hearts and minds of each individual viewer...A Woman, In Search starts an important conversation and one which will continue for a long while to come."
"[A Woman in Search] effortlessly navigates from storytelling to visual art...The audience are discouraged from remaining static and free to change seats or standing position at any time."
Foster has directed an excellent example of unusual but effective storytelling that is well worth seeing.
In addition here are examples of research projects Rory has been involved in;
Creative Director for Research and Development into AR Experiences Using Live Optical Tracking funded by Innovate UK in collaboration with Target 3D, Rose Bruford College and Copper Candle.
Creative Director for Hello World an exploration project funded by Innovate UK into the application of theatre into the metaverse
In addition to this Rory was also a shortlisted creative (during his work with Copper Candle) for StoryFutures Inclusive Design for Immersive Experiences Challenge in 2022
