directing

I direct mostly through my work at The Elif Collective
I emphasize collaboration, play, and physicality
I love devising interactive plays
I prioritize a socio-political question in every piece
I LOVE COMMUNITY!

Recent highlights:

We devised this piece from the Brazilian novella O Alienista by Machado de Assis. He's a genius!
