A year of residency and research

The first half of 2023 has been so full of so much fun — and the rest of the year will surely match. I got to work on great, hilarious short plays with rock stars Rory Kulz and Kanishk Pandey, at The Tank and The Brick, and next month I’ll get to direct Kanishk’s Clubbed Thumb writer fellowship reading (get tickets here!). Being a Clubbed Thumb directing fellow back in 2020-2021 was such a magical experience and I’m so happy to be working with them again .

I’ll also have three (!) residencies later this year: in June at Tofte Lake Center in Minnesota, in September at Wildacres in North Carolina, and in November at the Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts in Nebraska. I’ll be working on new projects about one of my favorite topics — bodily autonomy — but via different, exciting avenues. For months now I’ve been working on these new projects through embodied research all across the country, and I’m so thankful to have so much time coming up to sit down, sift through, synthesize, and start to create work to help keep our bodies safe, in such an unsafe time.
