Choreographer

Facing the harsh reality that everyone he’s ever known was tragically killed in a school shooting, Boy grapples with his emotions in his final moments by weaving together a story resembling J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan. As the play unfolds, Boy’s story begins to crumble. These young women, these mermaids, compete to be heard. They are the swim team – powerful and sometimes monstrous. Among them is Wendy, the only person Boy has ever felt understands him—until she doesn’t. This powerful drama tackles toxic masculinity and gun violence as Wendy and the other women take back their story. Blending dance and theatre, Dust plays like a musical score infused with poetry, giving voice to the unspeakable.
