ROUND HOUSE THEATRE TEEN PERFORMANCE COMPANY: GIRLHOOD BY DANI STOLLER
The TPC is one of Round House's most impressive initiatives: a completely free after school drama program for local teens where they get access to master classes with top industry professionals, inside access to Round House shows, and the opportunity to produce a new play commissioned for their company on Round House's main stage. Every element of this production is run by the company from the designers and directors to stage management and actors. I am lucky to be serving as the Dramaturgy Mentor for the company this year and am so excited for this incredible group of artists to present this show to our community. Get your tickets now, since there's only one weekend of performances!
ROUND HOUSE THEATRE: THE TEMPEST ADAPTED BY AARON POSNER AND TELLER
I had the pleasure of working as one of the Assistant Directors on the fabulous creative team of The Tempest this fall as part of my Artistic Apprenticeship. I was able to closely with director and adaptor Aaron Posner, Associate Director Holly Twyford, and Co-Assistant Director Renea Brown to produce this wonder of a show that features the music of Tom Waits, movement by Pilobolus, the magic of Teller and Nate Dendy, and the beautiful words of Shakespeare all wrapped into one brilliant production.

COGENT THEATRE COLLECTIVE: CLOSER BY PATRICK MARBER
I am thrilled to be back performing IN PERSON at Silver Spring Stage playing Alice in this newly remounted production Closer. I am joining a cast that had been brought together back in 2020 and were set to premiere the show the same week COVID-19 shut down the city of DC. Led by director David Dieudonne and producer Diego Maramba, this incredible group has persevered through the chaos of quarantines and closures and have come out the other side more ready than ever to share this story with you. I am absolutely honored to join them in such a complicated, gruff, and comedic role. Purchase your tickets HERE!

SPOOKY ACTION THEATRE: GRIEF CONTAINERS BY ROBIN BERL
I instantly connected with Spooky Action's Director of New Work, Gillian Drake, and I was so excited to be invited to both read scripts for and direct in their new play festival presentations in March. I read Grief Containers by Robin Berl and connected with the duality of grief and joy, and the patience and love required to cope with feeling both at the same time. I am presenting on the third day of presentations for the WE ARE NOT ALONE short play reading series on March 19th. Stay tuned for information on ticketing and streaming here!
