I began my directing journey through farce and physical comedy — exploring rhythm, timing, and the joyful chaos of shows like A Flea in Her Ear, Puffs, and A Midsummer Night’s Dream. In recent years, I’ve grown increasingly drawn to darker, more mature stories such as Doubt, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, and my upcoming production of The Birds.
I approach each project as a collaboration — I may have the roadmap, but the actors and crew decide what pitstops we take and what memories we make along the way. My goal is to create collaborative theatre experience in which all members feel they contributed in creating art that balances humor and humanity, tension and truth — leaving audiences both entertained and challenged.
