Jeu Jeu la Foille’s Frontal Lobotomy - A solo, spoken word performance
Visual theatre and poetry, heavily under the influence of Tom Waits and with a smattering of weird science. Original beat poetry, tormented lullabies and woozy mythology are punctuated with scientific accounts of transorbital lobotomy, and feature a toy shop orchestra of musical reprobates.
Jeu Jeu la Foille’s Testy Manifesto - The difficult second album
Enchantress weaves words of inner resilience, recovery and revolution in a striking visual anthology. Strange, poetic and acerbically silly; combining linguistic acrobatics with evocative images to delve deep into the mechanisms of intimate partner violence and systemic misogyny.
