MFA IN CHOREOGRAPHY from Wilson College
After two years of intensive study I have officially graduated from Wilson College with an MFA in Choreography. You can view my entire presentation below: Remote Collaboration and Distance Learning: Creativity Beyond Geography. It's become a hot topic lately and I had plenty of fun with my wacky long-distance experiments. There is also plenty of insight into what artmaking looks like in this crazy upside down world, how we can improve distance learning, and of course...some Hamilton.

Brave New World: the Musical
Lucky to once again team with my frequent collaborator Tom Caruso for the world premiere of Brave New World: The Musical at NC Stage Company. Based on the classic novel by Aldous Huxley where two worlds collide in a provocative story about love, humanity, and loss, set against the backdrop of a place where the most dangerous offense is an original thought.
Southern Comfort at the Public Theater
I could not be more proud or excited to choreograph this beautiful show at the Public Theater. Based on Kate Davis’ 2001 Sundance Award-winning documentary, SOUTHERN COMFORT tells the true story of a group of transgender friends living life on their own terms in the back hills of rural Georgia. Winner of the prestigious Jonathan Larson Award, this folk and bluegrass inspired musical is a celebration of redefining family and choosing love over every obstacle. Read the very kind words of Mr. Isherwood of the NY Times.
