Cast and Crew
Ash Willison
Producer and PerformerAsh is a performer, educator, and artist from a nomadic and multicultural background. All mediums and outlets of Ash's work stem from a personal movement practice. I am interested in colliding and questioning performative modes to create DIY theatre that truthfully sees the present, and provokes the future.

She is a co-founder of the collective hfs_ultras.

More Information
Band Practice is a Berlin based theater and clown duo made of Ash Willison and Lisa Ullrich. We met studying physical theater, and started collaborating in 2021 after failing our clown training. Then we went straight to Edinburgh Fringe with...a clown show. We turn ourselves inside out; wearing our most abject, absurd, and dark ideas quite literally on our bodies and invite the audience to encounter these creatures and do the same, if they please. The core of our work, as cheesy as it sounds, is that no matter how difficult or confrontational the questions are, we face them together in the spirit of playfulness and a tender friendship. And the power of a damn good song.
We've been described as "punky", "hardcore stupid", "ridiculous", and "confusing and slightly offputting" (this last one mostly from men).
We've performed at Edinburgh Fringe, Performing Arts Festival Berlin, Malta Festival (Poland), VAULT Festival (London) Berlin Fringe, Circus Lake festival (Italy) Deutsches Theater Berlin, Comedy Cafe Berlin. See more information at bandpracticeduo.com
We are extremely happy and nervous to be here. Big thank you to all of our mentors, supporters, stage-sharers, clowns, family members, teachers turned colleagues, and especially to Shai, Michelle, and Susannah. We miss you and love you :)
