Didn’t have to sell our souls to make this one🌌👽🌵
Celebrating one year of FAMOUS on YouTube with a little BTS from last year’s shoot!! Had a lot of fun producing and co-storywriting with this team.
SEPTEMBER 25th 💃🏼 Welcome to 1518. Things here are... well, bad. Political leaders are absolutely corrupt, the climate is in crisis, women are subjected to oppressive legislation and rules, the wealth gap is massive, and there’s generally a feeling that the end of the world could happen at any moment.
Sound familiar?
It’s in this world that one woman begins an uncontrollable, unstoppable dance, starting a contagious mass-hysteria-slash-public-revolt. In the two months that follow, over four hundred people join in her dance.
‘1518’ puts this bizarre-but-real event in the context of a modern pop concert in order to build a bridge from then to now. As we traverse through time, guided by an ensemble of vibrant performer-musicians, audience and cast embodies the story of a people possessed by their political circumstances. In resurrecting the dancing dead, we ask, what can we all learn about overcoming, healing, and resisting in the face of an oppressive society?
Performance to be followed by a talk back with consultant Dr. John Waller, a historian at Michigan State University who teaches and writes about the history of medicine and mass psychogenic illness. He is the author of The Dancing Plague: The Strange, True Story of an Extraordinary Illness.
Part séance, part pop concert, full theatrical extravaganza, ‘1518’ is sure to move you, body, mind, and soul.

I burned dinner (2024) ➡️ I burned dinner (2016)
It ended in the room with Tony Kushner (seriously still in need of one of those shock blankets?!?!?), in a beautiful production with the dreamiest cast, in the sweetest little theatre in America.
It started in 2014, as my first ever monologue in my first official acting class, the same monologue that would carry me, terrified, into my dream BFA program. it started with burning dinner for trev in blue group on 440 cubes.
harper amaty pitt, you have visited me for over a decade of my life and have cracked me wide open in ways I could never imagine. i love you 💙
until we meet again
