THE OUTS AND INS, 2019

"The Outs and Ins: A Study in the Ineffable" is a song cycle that I directed with my friend, Daniel Neale. The characters are seemingly unrelated, dealing with their individual anxieties with crippling independence.  We decided to place the songs in a high school, where all the students believe that they are suffering alone, but the characters are far more alike than they know.  We covered the lobby of the Purnell Center for the Arts in high school posters and used the architecture of the space to define their journeys.
