Love and luck to all involved! Anyone interested in joining should DEFINITELY get involved!

Lovely to talk about the nuances of movement coaching on #TheCrown here.

Choreographers are one of the last remaining on-set jobs in Film/TV without a union. That means: no benefits, no residuals, no minimum scale. We invite our industry colleagues to support our organizing! #SAGAFTRA #WGA #Teamsters #IATSE #DGA #1u

A sad day. The Mono Box developed from mine & Joan’s need for community as young theatre-makers. As a result it was full of creativity, curiosity & joy. Although the industry loses another keystone, The Mono Box will live on through the spirit&tenacity of the artists it nurtured ❤️

This looks swell 👍🏻
