DIGNITY, ALWAYS DIGNITY

I had the crazy experience of reading the part of Bryce Pinkham’s daughter in his work-in-development, DIGNITY, ALWAYS DIGNITY, at New York Stage and Film’s Summer Season. It’s a hilarious and beautiful portrayal of overcoming traumas and fear to become a parent. Keep and eye out for it when it comes to a stage near you!

We discussed nostalgia, themes, process, and purpose in playwriting. Thanks to Lauren and everyone at Same Faces Collective for letting me share what drives me as an artist!

Mommy, A One Woman Cho

I had the amazing opportunity to Assistant Direct for Seonjae Kim at the New York Stage and Film’s presentation of MOMMY, A ONE WOMAN CHO. In MOMMY, Grammy and Emmy Award nominated stand-up comedian, actress, and singer-songwriter Margaret Cho depicts all of the things she wishes her mother had actually said. (Cho notes that “this is a work of fiction.”) Thanks to Seonjae and Margaret for an amazing opportunity!
