PSYCHOPOMP is a whimsical piece by producer and actor Poppy Mee.

It first appeared at the Adelaide Fringe Festival earlier this year and is an emotional performance that narrates the story of the god of the space between life and death. This god inhabits Poppy’s body in the quest to gain knowledge of living beings, having never encountered one before.

Poppy Mee says PSYCHOPOMP was drawn from her love of being an artist.

“I wanted to show the audience life’s perspective from an artist’s lens,” she says.

“I like that as an artist I get the ability to comprehend what is going on in life constructively as this is passion that I have nurtured for a long time, I am glad that I get to do it at The Mill as they are a massive advocate for independent artists”.

PSYCHOPOMP is being developed as part of The Mill’s Centre Stage Residency, in collaboration with Adelaide Fringe, and will be presented as part of The Mill’s 2025 Adelaide Fringe program.

The showing will be followed by a short Q&A with Poppy, hosted by The Mill’s CEO and artistic director Katrina Lazaroff. Audiences will be able to ask questions about the development and provide feedback about the performance.
