​When the world forces us into isolation with only social media to connect us, how do we come together when we feel the most far apart? Where does reality meet truth, and when does it matter? RE: SOCIAL/DIVIDE is an interdisciplinary devised online performance piece deep-diving into social media, relative truth, and the relationships between them and us. #nofilter

My final project & thesis production for my Masters of Fine Arts in Directing at the University of Washington School of Drama. This show will be rehearsed and produced digitally. This sexually-charged study of faith and heartbreak, widely considered Ibsen’s darkest and most complex play, mines the tension between old and new, between conservatism and progressivism, between liberation and servitude.

By Henrik Ibsen
