We are delighted to announce that Bloody Elle by Lauryn Redding has been nominated for three Off West End awards for its run at Soho Theatre in July 2023:

• New musical
• Lead Performance in a Musical - Lauryn Redding
• Director (Musicals) - Bryony Shanahan

Bloody Elle, produced by the Traverse Theatre and Cloudrise Productions in association with Royal Exchange Theatre, blew audiences away during both TravFest22 and TravFest23 and we are thrilled with its ongoing success.

Since its run at Soho Theatre in July, then returning to the Traverse during the festival in August, Bloody Elle then made its way to London's West End at the Lyric Theatre for a successful run in September 2023.

Writer and performer, Lauryn Redding, reflected on Bloody Elle being a finalist in three categories in the Off West End Awards by saying:

'I am beyond chuffed that Bloody Elle has received 3 OFFIE nominations.. Making, writing, creating and performing this show has been a life highlight - and for it to be recognised by Off West End Stage awards in such a vast way is a real gem. Everyone who worked on this show gave it a piece of their hearts - and if we manage to nab and award or two - it’s for every single one of them too. I also wanted to take this moment to thank EVERYONE at the Traverse for your care and love for Bloody Elle and also a special mention to their magic audiences - Thank you for taking this show into your hearts. Fingers crossed eh?'
