Meet Mary,
Throughout Mary’s lifetime and career as a performing artist, conscious conversations between body and breath supported her growth and restoration process. Her journey with psychoanalysis began with Jung in 2012 . Mary’s passion for psychoanalysis and how this translates somatically through bioenergetics and language was ignited and galvanised during her Bachelors at Rose Bruford. Investigation of work that explored human relationships toward death, the divine and the taboo were at the heart of her individual research. Mary fully opened at Rose Bruford to her devotion to undressing social norms and habits to get to the core of the human beneath the conditioning through compassionate practice.
Mary graduated with first class honours 2015, displaying a considerable range of academic, acting and musical skills on our London campus and in the semester she spent at Columbia College, Chicago. One of the most talented performers we have produced, a fierce and passionate actor-musician. An astute listener, respecting other’s ideas, but also a proactive and intuitive thinker and organiser. Combining an intense emotional intelligence with a thrilling sense of the theatrical, Mary has a profound understanding of production processes. I am delighted she is channelling her creativity into projects in her native Belfast.

Mary
that was honestly one of the best and powerful ceremonies I’ve sat in. I got such a powerful release and I definitely connected more to the rose. I felt so safe, so held and was able to let myself go and be vulnerable. Your words, your body language, your Spirit - just exactly where I was meant to be yesterday and what I needed
