Busy in Quarantine



It's been a busy few months - adjusting to safer ways to do theatre and perform online and in person!


I connected with the Colorado Theatrical Response Team, who have put shows on weekly since the pandemic first hit, and staged four plays that I wrote over Zoom:

Short Circuit: Four short plays on the Science of Connection by Cyndi Parr Produced by the Colorado Theatrical Response Team / April 5th https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXNkCffiNis We were also featured in this article in the Denverite


I'll be working with the CTRT also for our upcoming Dragon Theatre show on August 30th, and with the Rocky Mountain Puppet Slam on August 22nd (where I'm emceeing with my puppet Rose Gold). I created a film as part of the 48 Hour Puppet Film Fest for the LA Guild of Puppetry, called Delivering Hope on May 5th.

Here's a direct link to my piece: Delivering Hope

This piece was also included with Ormao Dance Company's Open Stage on May 28th:

I had the chance to perform with the Pandemic Collective's Project Outbreak, a weekly podcast featuring local actors and creators across the region. I played a unicorn with a Cheeto addiction who is afraid of catching the platypus plague. http://www.pandemiccollective.org/ - Cycle 6, May 15th

I performed in 3 different Sofa Shakespeare performances, giving actors around the world a minute of Shakespearean dialogue and then editing them into full performances. https://sofashakespeare.com/ Here's links to my direct scenes (using the same hand puppets for each until I ruined them in Caesar!) Midsummer Night's Dream Much Ado about Nothing Julius Caesar


I was also featured in the Gazette's article about Creatives in Isolation, and my puppet Rose Gold made the cover of the Go! (temporarily the Stay!), our local weekly arts guide: Creatives in Isolation


It's been a huge adjustment for sure but so grateful for all of these opportunities to continue to create and connect with other performers and artists across the country!
