Claudia Nugent is a performer, theatre maker and writer based in Gulumoerrgin/Darwin where she resides with her girlfriend and two regal chickens. Claudia studied English, Italian and Gender, Sexuality and Diversity studies at La Trobe University and has been making theatre with Gold Satino since 2013. Claudia works in community services during the week and wiles away her weekends eating poems in dimly lit, well-ventilated corners of the room. She is interested in tending to spaces that are difficult to render, the urge to look twice, and that which remains always slightly out of reach.
