DIRECTION AND CHOREOGRAPHY

As a choreographer, director and movement consultant, I am passionate about collaborative physical storytelling, and believe that rooms where each actor and team member is respected and valued as a creative artist are those that create the strongest work. I've created movement for new and classic musical theatre, theatre for young audiences, film, plays, and new work, with favorite recent credits including In His Hands (First Floor Theater, choreographer/asst. director), James and The Giant Peach (Marriott Theatre, asst. director/choreographer), Inanimate (Theatre Wit, choreographer), A Christmas Carol (Metropolis PAC, choreographer) and Lookingglass Alice (Lookingglass Theatre, asst. director).

At Northwestern, I directed, choreographed, and curated my Honors Thesis "Going On Seventeen", investigating theatrical images of the ingenue and teenage girlhood ranging from Shakespeare and Rodgers and Hammerstein to DeLappe and Tesori. Its written research component was published this fall in Northwestern's Undergraduate Research Journal - read it here!
