Grease at Theatre Aspen⚡️

Thank you to @itspatrickoneill and Brian Hunt for the amazing opportunity to assist you both! It’s just as much fun to do every night as it was to watch it come to life in rehearsals. Just one week left!

First A Chorus Line!!
@eamonjohnfoley it was such a joy to collaborate with you on this beast. Thanks for everything and more! I’d swing your insane choreo any day. @paigepriceprods and @grimtank being welcomed into this room was so exciting. Huge thanks to @eoghansteeledillon and the whole cast for all the support onstage ❤️

Happy Closing! Until next time ;)

@ummusket Matilda The Musical 🦎

Directing and Choreographing this show with @thenatasharodriguez was by far the best part of college. I wrote about wanting to do this in my “Why Michigan” essay 4 years ago and feel so grateful I was given the opportunity to do so. Thank you to the funniest cast ever for trusting me and for learning those crazy dances. Also huge thanks to those that worked so hard on the creative team to make me and tash’s vision come to life onstage.

The mid show standing ovations were for us all ;)
