This section of my site is about "Where I'm Going" and
"Where I've Been" as an artist.
Where I’m Going
My goal is to some day wake up in the morning and only have creative
things to do. I want to support myself as an artist. I want to always be a
better actor than I was the day before. I want to join Equity and SAG as
soon as possible. I want to perform great roles in great plays with great
companies. I seek an exciting, inspiring, creative home.
Right now I’m most jazzed by classical work and movement/ensemble-
based avant-garde work. If I could be either performing or rehearsing
Shakespeare 365 days a year nothing could make me happier. I want to
do plays that are cutting edge, risky and heightened beyond TV realism. I
want to do plays that dance between reality and non-literal avant-garde
places. I want to do plays where the language is so powerful, timeless and
beautiful that the words land physical blows. I want to speak words that
make rooms gasp. I want to do theater that has to be theater and could
exist in no other medium. I want to do readings and workshops of plays
that are just being born and help shape their development. I want to work
in as many different mediums as I can to make myself a better all-around
actor. I want to work with actors and directors who I can learn from. I want
to work in casts where I’m the most retarded actor in the room -- I want to
have to fight to hold my own with people who amaze and push me. I want
to break gender boxes. I want to play villains and kings. I want to play
parts that are impossibly difficult. I want to play characters that think a lot.
My theater will defy stereotypes, challenge minds and connect diverse
people.
