about
Ashley Sánchez is an experimental film and theatre artist.
They were born and raised on occupied Kumeyaay Land (San Diego, CA).
Their interest is rooted in work which investigates:
alt-education, borders, clowning, movement, ritual, surveillance and translation.
Growing up in a town shaped by borders, they remain curious about the relationship between oral history, nationalism and propaganda.
Regardless of how these variables intersect, they inevitably inform our shared reality and personal mythologies.
They aim to continue making theatre that lives and breathes outside of traditional institutional spaces and proves accessible to the public.
They graduated from CalArts (BFA Acting) and are currently living on occupied Gabrieleno Land (Los Angeles, CA).
