Krishna Istha

Krishna is a performer, writer, live artist and theatre maker. Their practice looks at transformations (physical/political/collaborative), gender politics & queer culture using subversive text, cabaret elements & comedy. They have performed extensively across the UK, Germany, Australia and USA in works that span across theatre, opera, comedy and performance art.  Krishna’s most recent solo show, Beast, directed by Barry Award winner Zoe Coombs Marr, is a trans stand-up comedy show. It was commissioned by the City of Melbourne through Arts House, was developed through Culture Lab and is supported by public funds from the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
