Prior Live Experiences
An original conceived, written, and directed theatrical experience created for Transcendence Theatre Company based on the true life experiences and stories of 7 performers who made it to Broadway. The show was designed to honor each woman's personal journey through song, dance, and storytelling.
Director of the book musical at Lexington Theatre Company in which the goal was to honor the original while also restoring power and agency to Felicia's character throughout the entire tragic love story.
Choreographer of Red Mountain Theatre's remounting of the Carole King story where vocabulary of movement was created that was always narrative driven all while being performative. Musical numbers honored the history that they came from while still being stage worthy for Birmingham's contemporary audiences.
