Her subsequent work spans continents and genres: an Off-Off-Broadway revival of Henrik Ibsen's Ghosts at Access Theatre in 2010, the performance art piece Lucretia (2011) at Location One's Abramovic Studio in New York City based on Benjamin Britten's opera The Rape of Lucretia, and the Phantom Limb Company's 69° South (also known as the Shackleton Project) which premiered at the Brooklyn Academy of Music's Harvey Theatre in 2011 and toured North America. In August 2015, Hunter directed both Phaedra for the Happy Days Enniskillen International Beckett Festival and The Turn of the Screw for Aldeburgh Music, both receiving critical acclaim.
