Opened a wonderful show this weekend at @theatreofnote with some incredible artists! It’s been a blast sending off Pride season with these queer driven one-acts. Origins features plays about love, kinks, vulnerability, intimacy and just a whole lotta fun! These one-acts will take you through a rollercoaster of emotions through the night and have you laughing, crying, biting your lip and damn near sweating 🥵. Big ups to all of the amazing artists involved.

Special shoutout to the teams of the works I’m part of:

Love by @steveyockey76 , Directed by @tommylenk & Faggots In Love by @erikrosspatterson , Directed by @neilhweiss. Much love and gratitude for bringing me on this journey. What an honor it is to lift your beautiful words off the page and be a part of sharing these stories🫶🏾✨

Origins runs through August 2nd with evening performances at 8pm all nights, 7pm on Sunday, Saturday matinee at 3pm and Sunday matinee at 2pm.

Don’t miss your chance seeing these amazing plays with these incredible actors. Tix are available at link:

Honored to be starting off 2026 being a part of this beautiful show called LifeLine by Robert Axelrod (@robertaxelrod_ ) directed by the fabulous Ken Sawyer (@kensnet)

With everything that’s going on right now, a show like this one is needed and I’m very grateful to be working with this spectacular cast of artists bringing Robert’s STUNNING play to life 💫
