SEPTEMBER 2022-APRIL 2023
Thrilled to be a 2022-2023 Object Movement artist-in-residence at The Center at West Park with collaborator, Karen Loewy Movilla, to develop a play I wrote in 2021- Isadora the Baptist.
A comic-myth re-mix of Noah’s ark, Isadora the Baptist follows Isadora and her family of ill-equipped saints as they learn to live off the land. Featuring a wooly mammoth as holy mother, a shape-shifting apostle, naughty nuns, and chimeric prophets, the audience moves between the interrelated worlds of the narrating Hot Apostle’s congregation, and Isadora and her family’s homestead. This play offers a back-to-the-land, feminist, animistic theology set in a post-capital holy land.
Object Movement Festival will take place March 20 — April 1, 2023, at The Center at West Park. More info soon!
