As part of earning his MFA Acting degree, I created this solo show.

In this piece, I embody three real individuals who share perspectives on social media, democracy, and theater to demonstrate how they are all deeply linked in today’s divisive world.

I hope to continue using this framework of embodying people in portraits to create a multi-part series that comments on how other systems and ideas are linked in ways that aren’t immediately obvious.

(Portraits is a term coined by Anna Deavere Smith.)
