2nd Season with Brunch Theatre
Spring 2019
Returning for my second season, 'Brainfood' Brunch Theatre Co, new show in association with the social media platform, 'Half The Story' tells a story based on mental health. I am co starring in a 3 person, new devised work set on a traverse stage with direct address to the audience. My character Paulo, is a cis man who struggles with body image and wanting the perfect body while dealing with the trauma of being a burn survivor.
Signed with Shirley Grant Management
August 2018- I happily signed an exclusive contract with Shirley Grant Management! So excited to begin to shape my career with such a supportive team and see whats next!
Sadfemme- Back in front of the camera!
In September 2018 filming will begin for the new queer dark comedy webseries, Sadfemme. The show follows madison, a femme genderqueer person, and his self-destructive misadventures as he attempts to gain control of his life.
I will be portraying the main character's best friend Kasey, a no-bullshit,compassionate cis-female. I'm really excited to dive into the world of on camera work since I haven't had a lot of opportunity to do film. I am also excited just as an artist and from a gender perspective to portray a cisgender female for the first time in over 4 years!
Brunch Theatre, Government Blackout, May 2018
It's such an amazing joy to make my off-off broadway debut with such a queer- inclusive theatre. This play cycle includes 18 actors, 7 new plays and 8 performances. I get to play a nobinary character named Vic who is a bit of an anarchist.
On Brodway.com the play is described as "A first date takes a turn for the weird when a government-mandated blackout interrupts a young queer couple. Stuck in an apartment, Rey and Vic must wait out the power outage together, trying to connect despite their different belief systems."
