    “ I have had the honor of co-directing this show as well as directing on my own for our schools OAP contest show. It's raw, real, witty, and pulls your heart in every direction. It is a beautiful story of love, loss, uncertainty , and what it truly means to be yourself.

    I can't wait to do this show again, because of COIVD it was only done once. Maybe Pegasus will fly again soon. ”

    “ A marvelous, marvelous play. This would be a fantastic piece for higher education theatres. It's dark and full of fantasy and marvel, but there are moments of reality that are so powerful they nearly knocked the wind out of me. A really phenomenal exploration of mental illness and the children that it leaves behind. Full of well-developed characters, truly theatrical moments, and adventure, "Of Serpents & Sea Spray" is a lovely, moving piece ready for production. ”
