The Drama League's Beatrice Terry Residency, plus!
I am thrilled to share that I am The Drama League’s 2020 Beatrice Terry Resident! The Beatrice Terry Residency supports womxn-identified artists who both write and direct their own work. I’ll be spending the residency re-developing my project How to Put On a Sock, which takes its audiences on an interactive sex ed tour of the United States.
The Drama League has been a supporter for a few lovely years now, starting with supporting my gerrymandering project Packing and Cracking through a First Stage Residency. I’m overjoyed to continue working with them on How to Put On a Sock through their outstanding Beatrice Terry Residency program.
Speaking of Packing and Cracking: our online presentation of the project last week through the LaGuardia Performing Arts Center was a huge success! It was great to be able to present the show despite our in-person version that had been scheduled for March being canceled. We created an interactive online experience that allowed our audiences to form a community and discuss the important issues around redistricting and gerrymandering. We’ll be presenting Packing and Cracking more in the coming months, either online or in-person, whatever is possible. As we say in Packing and Cracking, stay safe, stay healthy, stay engaged. And also: stay tuned!
