My teaching asks how theatre can help students read cultural forms critically, communicate confidently, and interpret history and human experience with nuance. Across a variety of disciplines and levels of arts experience, I invite students to study performance as not only an artistic practice, but a way to understand institutions and navigate within a global society.
