Current work

The Hecuba Project

Voices of grief. Seeds of hope.

A contemporary chorus.

A place where grief is given voice.

Antigone (work in progress)

A modern telling.

Power, intimacy, and the female voice.

Intimacy as a site of power.

Approach
The chorus as witness

The Lamenting Chorus (Work in Progress)

Language as persuasion.

The Chorus as Witness

Voice, emerging from the silence.

Approach
A chorus gathers.

Not as one voice.

Voices arrive.

Hesitant. Separate.

One is called forward.

She speaks.

Not for herself alone.

But because she must.

What cannot be held privately

enters the shared space.

The chorus does not resolve.

It receives.

And carries.
