Speed Is Emotional – Wānaka Festival of Colour

Living life at high voltage
‍Jo Randerson has always lived life at high voltage. A true arts polymath, they have accumulated achievements, accolades, and acclaim as a PerformerComedianWriter, Activist/Director, CuratorTheatremakerFilmakerWitchClown.

Jo has a brain that never stops and a fountain of restless energy fuelling their fiercely funny artistic voice. And the spring that feeds that fountain? A lifelong superpower, which they had diagnosed in their 40s alongside their son: ADHD.

In Speed is Emotional, Jo bares their soul, sharing the exhilaration, exhaustion, joy, and absurdity of living and parenting with neurodiversity. Jo weaves their punk poetic magic into a beautiful comedy about transcending labels and living with a voltage so high it’s going to blow the mains.

‍Speed is Emotional is funny-as, painfully vulnerable, and a triumphant reclamation of life beyond labels. It's a tautoko to the power of art which literally saves lives.
