TERESA CREA
Artistic Director, Doppio Teatro

I don't have an issue about needing to work in mainstream, I'm perfectly happy where I am. I don't feel that I'm in a ghetto, and I'm doing the work I want to do. I'm incredibly excited about the work and I actually find it more stimulating at times. But undoubtedly there are difficulties, my own history and I hear it with other people, is obviously if you’re coming from the diverse backgrounds, sometimes if you want to get into the arts it's slightly more difficult because of the baggage that you carry, with families and so forth, expecting you to take more traditional roles.
