Someone Will Remember Us; at Trinity Rep

This week I begin directing a new play titled, Someone Will Remember Us at Trinity Repertory Company. This world premier play by Deborah Salem Smith and Charlie Thurston, Created by Dr. Michelle Cruz, Deborah Salem Smith, and Charlie Thurston. The process of preparing for rehearsals for this play has been an incredibly rewarding journey. The play explores the enduring effects of the Iraq war using real-life testimonies of U.S. military veterans, a Gold Star family, Iraqi civilians, and refugees living in Rhode Island. It’s been a privilege to bring these voices and themes to life with such a talented cast and creative team. This special play allows for a deep connection between performers and audience. It’s a story that lingers, and I hope that you may come and see. When the curtain falls, I believe it will be an experience which stays with you. Links to show dates and tickets below. 

 

FENCES: Trinity Repertory Company

Directing FENCES for Trinity Repertory Company was an honor. As an artist, I challenged myself to share August’s story in a way that’s unique yet reverential to the Wilson canon. By presenting the story as a memory play, through Rose’s point of view, we were able to examine some specific nuances of an already compelling story. One could say the production is in dedication to the women in our lives who hold our communities together. I’m grateful to the cast and creative team who took the vision to heart and delivered a production with grace and imagination.
