I'm a local Seattle stage director. I love new works, devised plays, shows based on classic works, and shows that keep the audience guessing
I want to push the boundaries of what we do onstage, and really keep the audience interested. We don’t give audiences enough credit, spelling things out to them. Theatre can be far more visual than it often is, and I hope to always push the visual agenda. We should show people just as often as we tell them. We should revel in the fact that theatre is not real life, but never stray from trying to connect with the audience.
I thrive on collaboration, and love it when discussions happen in rehearsal, though in the end there should always be a strong captain at the helm. I've trained with the Tectonic Theater Project, worked as script manager on Broadway tryouts and helmed my own experimental theater company.
