The Pop-Up Play Project was largely inspired by my involvement with the 2016 Core Company of The Orchard Project in Saratoga Sorings. After finishing an advanced training program with Cleveland Play House, I decided to apply what I learned about EDI, artistic producing, and accessibility, to my previous experience in public art while training with the Core Company

This is me, in Cleveland, while training with Cleveland Play House. Cleveland’s many beautiful metro parks inspired me to pursue a stronger path in publicly accessible performance.
