Kristin Wei-Chen Wong & Thomas Goetz

Kristin is a Taiwanese actor, musician, dancer, singer based in Edinburgh. She has a passion for storytelling through voice, movement, and music. Kristin uses improvisation, playfulness, and child-like curiosity to explore themes of identity and environmental awareness. Often beginning with her lived experience as an immigrant Asian woman, she reimagines these personal stories into wider reflections on belonging and ecological awareness.

She has recently performed in Prologue of Cabaret at Kit Kat Club (West End, 2025), Coleridge-Taylor of Freetown at Edinburgh Festival Fringe (2024), and appeared in the repertory season of Gypsy the Musical, Brief Encounter, and A Streetcar Named Desire (2023) at Pitlochry Festival Theatre. Her solo show Born This Wei premiered at Rise Up! Festival (Aberdeen, 2024).

Thomas is a choreographer, performer, and maker interested in science, philosophy, and nature. His work explores how perceptual worlds, behaviours, and ecological systems emerge in the “more-than-human world” and our relationship with them. Drawing on an MA in Choreography (Codarts) and a PhD in Biology (St Andrews), he aims to create experiences that enable intuitive insight into the “nature of nature.”

Kristin and Thomas collaborated on participatory (Weaving Webs, 2023, Loch Faskally), stage-based (Biomes, 2023, Rotterdam) and site-specific (Jupiter Artland, 2021) performance projects which explore our relationship with the natural world.

At Cove Park, they will be working on the R&D phase of ’52 Blue’, a multidisciplinary performing arts project that explores themes of belonging and identity through the cultural and perceptual (sound) worlds of marine mammals. This project is funded by Creative Scotland.
