Kay is a mystery. Little is known about her, but we do know that she is a Mexican artist that is passionate about storytelling in all of its forms. Her artistic endeavors include illustration, writing, sound design, acting, singing and directing.

A recent graduate of San Diego State University (BA in Theatre with and emphasis in Acting/Musical Theatre Performance) and an emissary of the sound deities, Andrew Gutierrez is a Sound Designer based out of Southern California. Iris & The Axe is Andrew’s second production with Turkey Theatre, following their flagship experience, “Homecoming: A Meditation on the Natural World”. Driven by his passion for storytelling, love of music and live performance, Andrew strives to create immersive sonic experiences that will drop each listener into the center of the experience. Whether it’s for work or pleasure, you can typically find Andrew spending his free time behind a digital audio workstation creating music and songwriting!
