I am joyfully overwhelmed to be continuing my work workshopping this wonderful piece with my dear friend and collaborator, Jessica Wallenfels. Joanne Johnson and I will explore the potent mother and daughter relationship through time and, most particularly, in the process of supporting a mother through her death. The piece will use dance, gesture, language, and the power of a live trio playing Shostakovich's magnificent chamber works.

A Dancing Brain Moving Through Space:
My passion for making new work is fueled by the beauty and strength of ensemble, my love of movement and my incurable curiousity about the way story works.
My passion for acting is fueled by the thrill of listening to my scene partners and my reverence for language.
My passion for teaching is my excuse to remain a student forever. My work in the classroom is fueled by the great courage of my students and the endless bounty of their imaginations.
I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to explore and share humanity through story. I am also thankful for the passion and excellence of the collaborators I have been able to create those stories with.
