HERAKLES
Written by Euripides
Translated by Anne Carson
Directed by Hunter Mahmoud Abal
“Herakles was always a special case.”
I couldn’t have asked for a better team of people to work with. So much gratitude to those tagged and those who I could not tag. I couldn’t have done it without you.
2025 marked my final year at CalArts.
So many years spent on Hippie Hill, figuring out who I was and what I wanted to say.
It’s hard to compress that many years.
I came here looking for answers. I’m leaving with better questions, a deeper sense of myself, and a lot of gratitude for the people who shaped me along the way.
