aod’s HQ wins Best Venue from Brighton Festival Fringe

Director of AOD Actors of Dionysus Tamsin Shasha has received an Audience Choice award for Best Brighton Fringe Venue for their LIONHOUSE venue, voted by audiences of the annual festival.

LIONHOUSE in Brighton has been used by AOD Actors of Dionysus for many of their smaller scale productions including Stories in the Garden – Ariadne, 2021 & 2022 and Atalanta, 2023 – family shows for 4-9 year olds, as part of their Wonder Women of the Ancient World series. The first show presented in the garden was Savage Beauty in October 2020 at the postponed Brighton Fringe (due to Covid lockdown).

Shasha said of the news, ‘I’m really delighted to receive this award, especially as audiences have voted for us. I wasn’t even aware the award existed, so it was a total shock when our name was called out. Wonderful news and very happy to accept it!’
