ABOUT THE SHOW

The kiln is ready. Who’s next?

Jenna Thompson has finished her PhD. Her life’s to-do list is complete—so why doesn’t she feel that way?


In a life she realises she never truly loved, Jenna finds solace in her weekly pottery classes. Alongside her, the ever-changing Angie and same-old steadfast Zoe shape clay, and in the process, shape each other.

Reinventing the Wheel explores the magical nature of change—how transformation in life can feel sudden, surreal, and extraordinary.
