"MOON FOOL is an international company with passion and talent that has fused together a unique theatrical practice that is proven groundbreaking and world-class."
Dexter Bullard, Head of Graduate Acting, The School of Art Institute of Chicago
"McLean's training is truly participatory and establishes bridges between indigenous musical forms and urban audiences and, in a lineage practically centred around male trainers (Grotowski, Staniewski, Bral), McLean's committed work proposes a ground-breaking alternative."
Dr. Konstantinos Thomaidis, University of Exeter
"Anna-Helena is a truly inspiring teacher and performer of her art. Her physical theatre practice shows the essential integration of consciousness, thought, and voice through embodiment. This work touches the visceral core that so many inhibit, and pulses with roots in a deep mystical and shamanic way of being that brings real presence to theatre practice. Anna-Helena is a reflective practitioner at the top of her craft".
Les Lancaster, Professor Emeritus of Transpersonal Psychology and co-producer of ACT INTERNATIONAL 2023
