Su Squire is a storyteller and theatre maker with a passion for creating work that sparks our deeper sense of connection with each other, the land that supports us and the ones we share it with.

Showing up for her first Grief Tending in Community event turned out to be a bit of a ‘hallelujah!’ moment for Su and she has since gone on to complete the Apprenticing to Grief programme with Sophy Banks and Jeremy Thres.

A transformative experience of personal loss inspired Su to set up Off the Twig, a performance company exploring death, dying and grief which integrates ceremony and ritual and encourages conversation and community around these themes.

She has arrived in the current chapter of her story via a meandering route through theatre, spoken word, street performance, community arts, singing and general tomfoolery.

Su is also a facilitator of the Norwich Death Cafe, part of a worldwide movement that aims to create a culture in which conversations about death (especially over tea and cake) are embraced as part of life, the impermanence making it all the more sweet.
