I'm excited to be jumping into a staged reading of excerpts from Tradition! a new musical by Mike Mosallam with music and lyrics by Avi Amon and Danny Bryck.

I'm excited to be working with my friend and frequent collaborator Leonie Bell on her new piece Sonntags wird gelogen Or We Only Lie on Sundays. In this dark humor Tanztheater landscape, matriarchal lineages converge and convene with mistranslations, misunderstandings, mundane anecdotes, and your weird neighbor.

I'm honored to share that American Dreams which I worked on virtually in the fall of 2020 was nominated for Outstanding Interactive or Socially-Distanced Theater at the 2021 Drama League Awards. I was so lucky to have work lined up over the pandemic, and thanks to the incredible team, we were able to pivot the show into the digital realm. See the full list of winners and nominees here. 

During these uncertain times, I'm super grateful to be working with Target Margin Theater to be creating theatrical work while so theaters are still closed. Now Go And Act Accordingly is a new piece that looks at the Greek myth of Baucus and Philemon and asks how do we be hospitable in times when so many are still apart. Performances will be outdoors, with social distancing at Target Margin in Sunset Park. Come see us May 7th - 29th. More info here.

I'm beyond thrilled to be returning to perform in American Dreams. I was lucky to be a part of the world premiere at Cleveland Public Theatre in 2018 and am so excited to be bringing this important show to audiences around the country. Due to the ongoing pandemic, the original tour had to move to virtual, but in doing so we've been able to partner with a number of theaters around the country who will present the show. The show imagines a world where the only way into the US is through a game show competition where three contestants must compete for citizenship. The audience is involved every step of the way and their real votes decide who will win American Dreams. More info including showtimes can be found here!
