Artistic Statement

Stories belong to all humans and we have a need to tell and share them. I love writing plays that don't look like what we see on stage usually. Bodies and stories systemically repressed from being a part of the theatre community easily accessed. I have lofty goals of following fiercely intersectional paths that my heroes have walked in before; sharing space with dear ones who should be the new heroes. This pull is kindred to what I believe children's programming used to be. Then somehow that got sterilized or stripped of the humanity. My dream is to bring back that humanity and all the flaws that are inherent with it. And to make theatre that is accessible for all people. Because theatre does not have to just exist on a stage.
