Bojana Jankovic

After spending most of her childhood doing maths Bojana made somewhat of a U-turn and managed to get herself into the Faculty of Dramatic Arts in Belgrade, where she graduated from BA Theatre Directing. While still a directing student she got drafted into Teatron (a theatre magazine), and started writing reviews, which caused all sorts of identity issues; she stubbornly persued both options and then escaped to London, where she studied Performance Making at Goldsmiths, met Dana and once saw Stephen Hawking at the National Gallery.
Bojana has a soft spot for forgotten classics (which she constantly adapts in her head), popular culture, and is somewhat concerned about (not) belonging to the UK context.

Dana Olarescu

Dana was nothing like Bojana when she was young. Quite on the contrary, she dreaded maths which sort of got her into avid reading and learning foreign languages. All to escape the prospects of studying science and physics. Peculiarities include: using the bedroom door as a blackboard for English words Alanis Morissette used in her songs that Dana couldn’t grasp, attending an English bilingual high school and spending most of her evenings in the theatre. Somehow, her parents always suspected the latter was a lie. Soon after graduating with honors form the Theatre Directing department at the University of Theatre and Film in Bucharest, she found herself more attracted to performance than classical theatre. Ergo, she started working on installations and audio guides and walks, travelling around Europe with a couple of projects and performances, moved to London to follow an MA in Performance (aha!) and eventually met Bojana, her current collaborator and some would think right hemisphere of the brain.
