Here is me in one of the giant puppets Cecilia Roberts and I built for Trinity Church Wall Street.  I am one of the kings at the the family Epiphany service.

Here is video footage of the service.

 

 

Cecilia Roberts and I designed and constructed 18 parade puppets for the family Christmas Eve Service at Trinity Church Wall Street in New York City.

My ten minute comedy for kids, “Drama Should Stay on the Stage,” will be directed by Megan Palagi as part of the “Kids Rule the 8 x 10” produced by Lucky Penny Productions in Napa, CA. The short play festival runs in February. A total of 153 entries were recevied, and from these, 8 were selected.

Celestial Hearts was a really strong zine collaboration I was a part of.

Here is is an interview I conducted for Meet the Playwright on Indie Theatre Now.

 

I created shadow puppetry, masks, and a giant fish head for this surreal production on Governors Island summer 2016 with Exquisite Corpse Company.

Inspired by the work of surrealist painter, Rene Magritte, The Enchanted Realm of Rene Magritte featured performance and installation set in an 8 room mansion on Governors Island. Eight playwrights came together to create a beautifully surreal story of love and memory; moving audiences in and out of the various rooms. Magritte’s three panel mural The Enchanted Realm served as the source material for this immersive production.

Check out my new zany ten minute comedic duet,  An Atmosphere to Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich Convertor available with Heuer Publishing.

Geeks Jamie and Dominque are competing to win the school’s science fair. Dominque accuses Jamie of being a creative-less caveman; Jamie accuses Dominque of being a hi-tech heretic. Yet, the dissimilar duo manage to form a friendship and even a potential working relationship when Viola Whittaker wins the science fair with her classic baking soda and vinegar volcano.

Check out my play, Eaten Voices, Winner of the Thespis Theatre Festival 2012, now available on Indie Theatre Now.

Eaten Voices was also produced at Dixon Place, NYC, NY, Nature Consortium, Seattle, WA, and Bread and Roses Theatre, London, UK.
