INTIMACY WORK
Intimacy related work has become a huge point of focus within the performance industry over the last decade. I currently specialize in Choreography for Live Performance and have trained (primarily) with Theatrical Intimacy Education. The work I do covers anything from examining how characters come into constant contact, kissing, simulated sex, and nudity.
With experience in university, community, and professional performance spaces I would be happy to talk with you more about the process and my rates.
