  • Zora on My Mind
    6 Oct. 2021
    ZORA ON MY MIND is a musical journey of self-love, storytelling, and finding one's purpose. Gonzalez's book and Lawrence's music pierce the soul, taking audience on a blues-filled trek. Inspired by the work of (Harlem) Renaissance woman Zora Neale Hurston, ZORA ON MY MIND fights against prescriptive narratives around race and gender and challenge the notion of what music theatre can and does look like. A wonderful four character journey, designed for choreographic exploration and innovative staging opportunities.
  • IPHIGENIA IN QUARANTINE: a play for the internet
    4 Aug. 2021
    IPHIGENIA IN QUARANTINE is an innovative entry in the proliferation of digital theatre. Equal parts biting social commentary and tantalizing horror play, Dooley masterfully navigates a bevy of issues without compromising style and spectacle. Many opportunities for experimentation with digital tools and the exploration of asexuality, criminally under-recognized on the theatrical stage. A terrifying and fresh take on the Iphigenia myth, IPHIGENIA IN QUARANTINE pushes theatre forward.
  • Momma

    A haunting, visceral journey of motherhood, race, and trauma. Hernandez beautifully treats complex and challenging subject matter with care and nuance. The piece, a woman-centered thriller, is a scary, yet realistic meditation on how far a mother will go. Beautiful imagery and language that will stick with you long after the lights go down and you leave the theatre.
