“I’m not a stunt man. I’m not a daredevil. I’m an explorer.”

- Evel Knievel

I do plays to quench my compulsive curiosity. When I don’t understand people, when I can’t forgive them, when I need to heal, plays are my remedy. I do plays to love bigger, live bolder, and laugh brighter. I do plays to be better.

Below is a sample of plays I’ve directed or produced the past few years.
