theatrical intimacy professional
Consent + choreography

let's partner together
Through workshops, I provide an introduction to the foundations of consent-centered practices and how to develop a working language to navigate the needs of staging theatrically intimate moments. I am passionate about teaching performers how to navigate their autonomy professionally.
education
Supporting the open dialogue needed between the creative team and the performers, I connect between each department to ensure all needs are factored in such as costuming, closed-set protocols, etc. Not only supporting performers, but also addressing needs of the crew and production team as a whole.
coordination
I craft, rehearse, and support choreography that deepens the storytelling of the moment and meets the needs of the talent and their boundaries. Expert choreography with an eye for how each moment connects or changes can be the difference maker in what the audience experiences of that moment.
