PROCESS
Every weekend, I have the privilege to act, dance, and roll off furniture with the youth of Albany Park. In an immersive 3-story apartment, 28 audience members are guided through 4 immigrant homes, brimming with devised stories of celebration, tradition, and food.
I play Hope, a young woman who has inherited stories from past residents and embodies the spirit of the building. In my bedroom, I perform complex choreography with projections to tell the story of my predecessors.
Outside of show days, I tutor math and science the high school ensemble as part of Albany Park Theater Project's commitment to increasing opportunities to the neighborhood's teens.
