Jealous of Herself

NowNow Theatre, 2016 | Composer

A woman's fiancé does not recognise her. To satisfy his desires, she creates an alter-ego to fulfil his fantasy of the perfect woman. NowNow Theatre presents the English-language world premiere of Tirso de Molina’s ‘Jealous of Herself’ in association with the ETC.

Keble O’Reilly Theatre, Oxford • 22nd-26th November 2016

“The music, composed by Alice Boyd, helps with the seamless nuances of tone as the interludes of performances by the ensemble (Boyd, Anushka Chakravarti, Cara Pacitti, Ell Potter and James Tibbles) are in turns enchanting, ominous and bittersweet.” Cherwell

“The ensemble, consisting of Alice Boyd, Anushka Chakravarti, Cara Pacitti, Ell Potter and James Tibbles, brought forth mesmerising and thought-provoking segments that amplified the poignancy of Alice Boyd’s composition.” The Oxford Student

“Alice Boyd has composed original music that is sung onstage by an ensemble, their vocals merge together into haunting harmonies that traverse the seventeenth century setting and the modern performance.” The Oxford Student
