About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling across the country

ABOUT ME

I am a 23 year old in the theatre field. I eventually want to get my MFA in Directing. I work with some smaller companies in the Philadelphia area, but I want to open my own theatre company. I am using these couple of months to see the country and see each of the theatres in the areas to better understand the U.S.

PHILOSOPHY

Why? Always ask that question in every way shape or form. Is you don't know that answer you need to figure it out.

Interests

Theatre, Drama, Directing, Dramaturgy, Acting. Avant Garde, theatre of the absurd, theatre of cruelt. DADA. Football, baseball, and Olympics types of sports. I enjoy more independent movies, but still will go and see movies like Kangaroo Jack in theaters. Education- I eventually want to teach. Traveling. Existentialism, art exhibits, and museums

Call first to secure your stay and what will it be like. Sure they live downtown, but if you a traveling by car, where can you park? Sure they say there's public transportation, but is it a 2 minute walk, or 40 minute walk.
