El Ciclón (𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘺𝘤𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘦) (2018 + 2026) is a climate-Caribbean-womanist mythology veiled as an underground Riot Grrrl musical and camp film. Ava is stranded in swampy South Florida facing an impossible moral decision amidst a looming natural disaster… The mad-tropicalist production is filmed/edited in real time for a live theater audience.

Images from May 2026 workshopped version created with the inspiring University of Maryland artists & designers along with my long time collaborators @lizdeliseband @sawcrawf
