I'm excited to announce the newest single from fajjr+ali - "I'm Fine". We wrote the song to talk about the dark side of social media. We all fall into the trap of feeling like we need to post and show off our best lives on social media but in reality, the constant need can negatively affect our mental health. The song starts off upbeat but slowly gets darker and darker and enters a dark pop realm. Take a listen to this song and the rest of our music here.

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. Cacophonies of choral song and pedestrian movement; performed in German, English, & Denglish. Peformances are December 2nd – 12th at The Brick Theater in Brooklyn. More information here!

My latest audiobook The Perfect Family by Robyn Harding is now available! The Perfect Family follows the Adlers as their perfectly curated life seems to keep on unravelling. As their house keeps getting vandalized with increasingly dangerous methods we learn that each character seems to have their own secrets. So whose secret is the reason for the constant attacks. You can take a listen wherever you get audiobooks. More info can be found here. I'm thrilled to be one of the main narrators for the audiobook of The Shimmering State by Meredith Westgate. The book follows Sophie and Lucien in a not so distant future where memories can be packaged into neat little pills, something that is helpful for those struggling with memory loss, but dangerous for anyone else looking to detach for a little while. I had such a great time reading this one. Check out the book on the Simon & Schuster website or anywhere you get audiobooks. More info can be found 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.
