Emily Allan and Leah Hennessey are playwrights, directors, and actors

They are best known for their web series Zhe Zhe, a camp satire of New York City’s performance scene, and for their recent two-person show Slash, which also considered “slash” culture and homoerotic fan fiction about iconic celebrity and fictional pairings.

In 2019, Allan and Hennessey were in residency at CERN, organised in collaboration with the Centre d’Art Contemporain Genève as part of the Biennale de l’Image en Mouvement 2020.
