Live Events
Headphones off. Surrounded by people. Live events are the stuff of being human. There’s no end to the amazements of live performance; every laugh or gasp is a thrill.
I specialize in defying expectations.
Studio B is a non-profit organization dedicated to creating amazing live performance events, and showcasing the work of incredible artists of every discipline. We’ve garnered a rabid following and have enjoyed producing sold-out events since 2010.
The Speakeasy Series is modern day Vaudveville. We bring in major musical acts, performance artists, dancers, comedians, and any number of other un-definable performers. The audience cannot believe their luck.
Since 2010, The Story Slam has been an on-going series; writers read five-minutes of their best stuff, and literary agents judge the best writer of the night. Standing room only.
The Bizarre Bazaar — a quirky holiday tradition since 2010 — has become the favorite of local artists for its high quality vendors, and its massive crowds. How do we get thousands of people through the doors of this annual event? Talent. And photos with an Abominable Snowman, naturally.
Hybrids = a sublime combination of elements that aren’t normally combined: Mr. Rodgers and hiphop, ballet and Nirvana, 80s tunes covered with a distinctly Bluegrass twang.
The Catalyst Film Series screens great documentary films with significance to our community, then localizes them by programming meaningful talk balks (with our host, NPR’s David Brancaccio).
Post Mortem: Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein exhumed in words, music, film, and dance.
Scratches & Scribbles brought together Caldecott Award-winning authors and illustrators to talk about the fascinating collaborative process of creating children’s storybooks.
Scream took an up-close look at the psychopathic mind of Edgar Allen Poe and the female characters he created. Using Vaudeville as a framework, Scream gave the real women in his life a chance to take the stage through film, dance, and music.
After Trump was elected in 2016, some people went into a fetal position. We put Come Together, Move Forward together four days after the election that brought together community leaders, and those who needed to hear a positive way forward.
A film series for ‘tweens, Celluloid Candy presented entertaining and off-beat films (docs, features, and shorts) to an underserved audience.
