To See the Stars
This was our competition one act for 2024. It received 2nd place at the region competition. The judges complemented our strong ensemble work and the distinctive characterization of our leading actors. It also received a special award for our unique set design, which successfully represented various locations, while still being able to travel to the competition location. I enjoyed directing this feminist piece by Cynthia Mercati that focuses on the themes of labor rights, fair treatment for immigrants and finding meaning and belonging in the midst of unjust circumstances. I had many wonderful talks with my cast about the themes of the play and how they relate to the world we live in today.Â
