About: TRANSLATIONS was a one-hour performance that translates my work from Pittsburgh Performance Actions 2013-2014. The retelling was a new adaptation for stage, inspired by Pittsburgh and the complex stories of our region and world. It allowed me to work with a huge talented cast, have professional support, and be encouraged to take these visions to the next level. In 2015 - 2016 I am directing these stories, much changed and altered, into a new version for cinematic video under the title Wild Clarity.
