Breathe Smoke

Produced by Orbiter 3, Written by Doug Williams

My role: Originating Actor-Creator

Premiere: Painted Bride Arts Center — Oct 2016


When my friend Maura Krause reached out to see if I was interested in being part of a devising process alongside a playwright, I was IN. trigued. I thought how would that work? Do we generate material that the playwright takes and sculpts? Do we play with text that he brings in and build off of that? Or something in between? The answer was Something in between. Breathe Smoke was written by Doug Williams, directed by Maura, and produced by Orbiter 3. (Oh man, do you know about Orbiter 3? It was inspired, inspiring, and something that I REALLY hope is still being talked about today.)

I got to play alongside my dear friends/brilliant performer-creators, and delve into a process that was an experiment for us all. I would link Orbiter 3’s site here, but I don’t think that exists anymore after they sunsetted. So for credits, this is all I could find.
