What is your job on this show?
Director and Set Designer.
When did you know you wanted to work in the theater, and why?
I fell in love with theater in college, and I've been doing it ever since.
Why do you do theater (as opposed to film, or TV, or something not in the entertainment field)?
I like the intimacy of live performance with no stops.
In your own words, what do you think this show is about? What will audiences take away with them after seeing it?
The show is about how the world has become so digitally obsessed, that we need to take the time to look beyond our gizmos and see the beauty of life.
Which “S” word best describes your show: SMOOTH, SEXY, SMART, SURPRISING?
All of the above!
Can theater bring about societal change? Why or why not?
Of course, it can. The power of live performance is too great to ignore.
