Highways unique entry into the year-long nationwide theater festival takes ten short works and transforms them into a propulsive, audience initiated landscape of performance, dance, sound, and film projection.

Come one and come all!  Enter Highways’ “anti” circus, a performance installation wherein the audience journeys across a twisted sideshow that looks an awful lot like home.  Here flesh and soul are bought and sold, “queens” reign supreme, and the American dream is a poisoned Kool-Aid everyone must drink.  Graceful improv dance meets hysterically raging performance art, electronic noise and acid house meets accordian folk, break-dance meets capoeria, the political meets the absurd, life marries death + all the cholesteroal clogging carnival sweets you can eat.

365 Days/365 Plays started in November 2002 when Suzan Lori-Parks committed to writing a play a day for the next 365 days. In Los Angeles, over the course of this year, 51 L.A. theater groups - coordinated by the L.A. hub theater, Center Theatre Group and Diane Rodriguez - will take part in this project.

Video from my performance at the Splinter Squid Affair, 8/11/07

I just got back from the Pacific Northwest last weekend, and had a great time. The shows were a blast, including a last-minute gig in Eugene, sharing a bill with Liz Allbee. Thanks to Bob Bellerue for putting me up for the weekend!!


New News Page

I just had some trouble with the database for this news page, and I think I lost all my records. In its place I have a new script I wrote.
