The last couple of weeks have been full of creative goodness: I organized an audio recording of my play, Florence the Firefly, with my dream cast and my amazingly talented brother working as sound engineer/editor. It will be many months before it's all edited together, but it's on its way! And it was a fun night. (Even though we were all recording remotely from our own apartments/bedrooms/closets...)

Then I took an Intimacy Captain workshop led by Ann James from Intimacy Coordinators of Color, and am now certified to be an Intimacy Captain, whenever we get back into spaces to do shows again! I highly recommend this workshop for anyone in the theater (especially relevant to actors & SMs who may become Intimacy Captains on shows, but informative for directors and other stage professionals too). I was educated and inspired by this workshop.

Then I was honored to play the title role in Erin Moughon's Gertrude in the Dramatists Guild's Friday Night Footlights reading series (again, from my closet, but still). This is a juicy play that I would really love to get to do once we can do in-person theater again! 

And tonight I'm performing in a scene at the PGE, playing...myself! Ha! Matthew Menendez wrote me into his first play and I couldn't be more excited and proud! 

It's been a fun couple of weeks!
