  • dog song

    A beautiful young couple take to the mountains to live out their dreams of pure, clean off-grid living. Unfortunately, their lack of technical skill is a little bit of an issue. So is the rent they owe their beautiful and perfect tradwife landlady. Also, the coyotes that won't stop howling on the ridge seem to be getting closer and closer.

    But little obstacles like that never stopped a perfect couple on their homesteading journey. Right??? Besides, the earth is always speaking if you care to listen. Right???

  • What the Water Tells Me

    Through hip-hop, puppetry, and dance, this collaborative story explores the waves that course through our veins, create the beats that move us, transmit the media that shapes us, and fill the rivers that can lead us back home. What the Water Tells Me follows two childrens journeys to adulthood, as they navigate the changes that occur in their home town and within themselves, when a large utility company comes to town and threatens the waters that raised them. Co-written with Cattywampus Puppet Council and the Good Guy Collective.

    Produced via Cattywampus Puppet Council at Modern Studio, Knoxville, 2017.

    Produced at Cosby Arts & Gardening Festival, Cosby, TN, 2018.

    Produced at Highlander Center Homecoming, New Market, TN, 2019.
