NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING
Independent Dance Theatre Production
An ode to the dawning realities of adulthood that emerge in our late 20s. Encapsulating the ambivalence of pretending that we know what we are doing, all whilst having absolutely no idea what is going on.

Additional thanks // Helen Tiplady, Sally Knight, Kyla Goodey, Richard Chappell, Kaitlyn Howlett, Nico Bray, Marco Cifre, Mimi Attenburrow, Will Birdgland + Resolution Festival.
Duration // approx. 25 minutes
Choreographer + Performer // Aisha Naamani
Music // Medicine ft. Snorkel, CVC, Aisha Naamani + CF1
Rehearsal Directors // Marla King + Ishita Raina

No Idea What I'm Doing was originally created as a part of Hall for Cornwall's Scratch Night in May 2024. It was later developed into a longer work that premiered as a part of Resolution Dance Festival 2025 at The Place Theatre, London.
Throughout the solo, Aisha investigates the humanity of how we all have to navigate a world full of expectation, ambiguity and enquiry. The arc of the work is tinted with humour and is characterised by vigorous floor and tap dancing, spoken word, clowning, electronic music and a Welsh choral hymn.
Aisha is currently touring No Idea What I'm Doing around the UK. Previous theatres she has showcased this work include: The Place Theatre, Sterts Arts and Environmental Centre, Theatre Royal Plymouth (The Drum), Hall for Cornwall, Bodmin Arts Festival and Summer in the Scene Dock Festival.
"With her silken spine and highly expressive face, Naamani’s hesitations and humanity leave a refreshing impression"
– Eoin Fenton, Resolution Festival Press
"...both bold and original."
– Kaitlyn Macey, The Plymouth Herald
"...her performance leaves us in no doubt that she is in full command of her art form."
– Nicholas Minns, Writing About Dance
