Tilley Milburn
“Myself and my partner had the pleasure of attending Tilley’s Puffing and Wooling event. We didn’t know quite what to expect … Tilley created an environment where we were able to take our minds away from daily stresses and enjoy existing in the present.” ~ Lily Vincent-Frankland, Drama & Theatre Director at Square Pegs Arts
Tilley Milburn is a unique performance and visual artist. Their work incorporates a variety of art forms including acting, directing, singing/songwriting, compering/interviewing, poetry/spoken word, puppetry, design/illustration and comedy/Improv. They also facilitate workshops and curate immersive experiences and spaces. They often perform with their best friend, Del, a patchwork piggie.
This summer Tilley will be taking their immersive experience Puffing and Wooling to Maidstone Pride and Tunbridge Wells Fringe Festival. They will also be hosting a new show called Human: Pig Musings (Tunbridge Wells only).
Puffing and Wooling, which they co-host with Del, is a space that explores rest, relaxation, reflection and enables people to be present and fully themselves. People can explore mindfulness/meditation, song sharing, stories, arts/crafts and more, in a fully improvised space, open to everyone.
Tilley and Del also co-curate and host ‘Unfurl’, a super chilled cabaret and social space, which is part of The Bubble Club, a club night for neurodiverse adults and people with learning disabilities in East London.
Tilley and Del have showcased their work at a range of venues and festivals including Southbank Centre, Wellcome Collection, The British Museum, The Gulbenkian, Boing! Family Festival and Electric Medway. They are also an actor with Square Pegs Arts Professional Theatre Company who perform throughout Kent.
