PERFORMER
I have performed in plays, readings and several solo pieces. Most recently, I performed the title role in Terpsichore Speaks! a solo by David Wiener, directed by Nathan Cottam at Mannakin Theater and Dance in San Francisco. Several of my solo plays were developed in part at the Marsh in San Francisco. In 2024, I performed my solo play Where I Come From about an Irish Famine refugee in the Playground Free-Play Fest and This Guy: Cards, Bowling, Family & Music at Mannakin Theater and Dance, both in San Francisco. During the sheltering order, I not only wrote and presented a full solo piece that was live-streamed. I also wrote and performed a monologue as Ms. Victoria Jaronda, a character I created; I read Dr. Seuss’s Fox in Socks as multiple characters; and I created a series of monologues on trying to exercise during the pandemic performed by the character, Barry, the Exercise Guy.
