FEATURED PROJECT

Sweet and Sour

Who gets to tell our story when we die?

In this existential family comedy, the Klein-O’Roarkes constantly surprise each other as food and medicine become the proxy for an Experience for which they have no appropriate language. 

Sweet and Sour was performed as a staged reading at Z Space in San Francisco, as part of the Greenhouse Festival, and at the JCC in Berkeley as part of the national Reimagine festival. We will have a series of performances + conversations in 2023. Stay tuned for dates and locations.

Through fiction, theater, journalism, and public conversations, I strive to create art and dialogue that changes people’s minds.
