Whitebird 2011

And my summer gig as Visual Director of Creative Theatrics summer camp in Prospect Park was a whirlwind of creativity by all the artists involved. I especially enjoyed building a 7 foot tall pop-up book opera house, a gianttorch from which a phoenix puppet rose, a 4 foot diameter Mayan calendar (in relief), a comic book forest, and a starscape that transforms into a projection screen or teleporter. (i guess i also really liked the 4-headed dog puppet, the full-body hand costumes, the sarcophagus costumes, and the fire maze!) Thanks Whitebird!

La Divina Caricatura

It was so fast I didn't even have a chance to post the info before we performed it! I really enjoyed performing as the feet of the dog with an utterly fabulous cast of puppeteers, singers, actors, and musicians directed by the one and only Lee Breuer in a workshop performance of La Divina Caricatura at PS122 on August 1st, 2011

video from earlier this year (before i was involved):
