Here's a recent interview in American Theater Magazine
I have been a resident artist with the following theater companies: - Crowded Fire Theater, S.F. theater company focused on developing and producing fierce new plays - Mugwumpin, devised physical-theater company - Woman's Will, all-female Shakespeare company - The Original Action Pack, improv comedy troupe |
Theater training:
I studied the Stanislavski System and Shakespeare at the Bennett Theatre Lab in San Francisco. I have studied circus, improv and various forms of physical theater, including Clown, Buffon, Commedia, Stage combat, Suzuki and Viewpoints, in the US and abroad. I don't have any degrees, but I have decades of training and experience. |
Dance is joy.
I have trained in roughly twenty styles of dance.
I was a founding member Reconnect, an African-diaspora dance theater company, and I have danced with the Haitian companies Rara Tou Limen and Group Petit La Croix, and the neo-folklore dance-theater companies Deep Waters Dance Theater and Ase Dance Theater.
I often work as a choreographer and movement director.

I have a fun and funky seated workout series on YouTube called Sit and Groove. Check it out!
I have written 4 short children's plays.
I play the concertina (squeeze-box) and the zils (Middle-Eastern finger cymbals.)
I co-hosted The SHOUT, a monthly storytelling event in Oakland until I moved to NYC.
My ideas about creativity, humanity and social justice were formed growing up at a very special circus camp.
