Director, Teacher, Theatre Maker
For me, every production begins with this question: What story can this particular group of people tell in this moment, in this place, with this audience that’s never been told before and will never be told again in quite this way?
Like a pointillist painting, the image comes into sharp focus because all its parts are united simultaneously. Ensemble.
The power of creativity is that every idea can evolve through the ping-ponging of feedback, where one thought leads to another and another until something is born that is truly greater than the sum of its parts.
“I think anytime Alexa is in a space with people she takes it to a whole other level of exactly what this work should be - wholehearted, tender, vulnerable, everything reflective of the creative state that Stanislavsky’s writing about. She is just the epitome of all that is good about this work. It’s exemplified in her students, and I’m so privileged to have been part of their work. I can’t say enough about her and the generous teaching artist and human being that she is. Thank you for sharing yourself and showing everyone what this work can be.”
