Space Company is a work in progress devised immersive solo show that explores the absurdity of corporate culture, late-stage capitalism, and an insatiable desire to explore and understand as much as humanly possible.
Follow Emma Irene's journey from her first panel interview with the Executive Leaders, to her playing her part in making Space Company "The Best Company In The Universe", to her climbing the corporate ladder before the show is blown up with an apocalyptic event that forces the performer and audience to rethink the ways in which we live and start again. What sort of world will we build if we have to start from scratch?
The show investigates American corporate culture (especially the cult-like nature of some massive companies), how our ego plays into career (even careers that we may not want or even enjoy), efficiency at all costs, and the toll it takes to always be professional, prepared, and go above and beyond.
Devised and performed by Emma Irene Olson (she/they), a queer multidisciplinary performance artist living and working in Los Angeles. Their art explores themes of self, perception, ego, challenging authority, and consciousness, while being rooted in love, connection, nature, and play. Following what is fun, curious, or inspiring, they seek to find and create live performance art that connects with an audience and cannot be fully reproduced. Her approach is multi-disciplinary, with written text, original music, improvisation, clowning, audience interaction, and wearable art.
Emma Irene has self-produced three solo shows: Astro Cabaret (directed and co-devised by Natasha Mercado), The Faults In My Stars (directed by Justin Gilbert), and Universal and Absolute (directed by Rosie Glen-Lambert). Astro Cabaret, her most recent solo drag musical inspired by her astrological birth chart, premiered at the 2024 Hollywood Fringe Festival to rave reviews and was nominated for Best Cabaret & Variety Show by the Hollywood Fringe Community, as well as the Three Clubs Production Award.
