Her research currently centres in Performance Studies, Jewish History and Antisemitism, and Monster Studies inspired by the work of academics Jack Halberstam and Julia Kristeva. Gale graduated from Goldsmiths University of London in January of 2023 with Distinction and a Masters of Performance Making under the guidance of acclaimed British Playwright Anna Furse, and Academics and Artists Graeme Miller and Dafni Lazouti.
