About

Creating experiences that explore human connection.

Based in Malta and Scotland, Amy Grech is a Maltese theatre practitioner, performer, and human-centred designer whose work explores the intersections of human psychology, embodiment, storytelling, and empathy. Trained at the Malta Drama Centre and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, she has performed across theatre, physical theatre, musical theatre, and devised work in Malta and Scotland.

Alongside her performance career, Amy completed a PhD at the University of Strathclyde, where she pioneered new approaches to designing empathy through immersive experiences. She is particularly drawn to psychologically complex, emotionally driven characters and creates work that invites audiences to connect deeply with themselves, others, and the world around them. Her latest solo theatre production, 'A Carpenter's Daughter', brings together her passions for theatre, research, and human connection.

Latest Project:

A Carpenter’s Daughter

What colour would you give to love in your life?

A Carpenter’s Daughter plunges into Ella’s visceral conversations with her father, whose evolving relationship becomes an emotional thread throughout her life. Spanning Malta and Scotland, the work follows Ella as rejection, hatred, and grief challenge her understanding of love, revealing how it can shapeshift into unexpected forms.

Through storytelling, movement, sound, and intimate reflection, the piece explores the soul’s emotional residue carried across generations. This heart-driven performance invites audiences to reflect on what remains when love is never fully received, painting a portrait of love in its absence.

This project is supported by the Arts Council Malta, The Edinburgh Fringe 2026, the Malta Showcase. Stay tuned for more updates!
