The Poetess

After connecting with millions online through her viral typewriter poetry videos, Olivia Dodd brings her deeply personal and emotionally resonant debut play The Poetess to the stage. This compelling show merges storytelling, poetry and audience interaction in a moving theatrical exploration of the healing power of words. Inspired by Dodd’s own journey of writing thousands of custom poems for strangers around the world - for which the most common topic requested was “I feel lost” - The Poetess explores what it means to listen, to connect, and to heal — not just others, but ourselves.
