The week of birthdays and shows!!! Edge 5!!!
Ahhhhhhh time is slipping away and somehow we landed on the third week of June. This year it means something extra special to me!

June 18th 7pm Opening- this is my amazing lighting designer, Chengyan’s birthday!!!
June 19th 7pm Closing- and this is my birthday!
Two shows and birthdays back to back! How crazy is that!!!!
Soup of Forgetfulness has been years in the dreaming, and a year and half of marinating, making and re-making!
This solo has its genesis at
