Why do you want to write for Rescripted?:

Classical Singer / Performance Artist / Actor

I bring myself. I have a philosophical / social justice bent to my writing. 

Who is your favorite theatre artist and why? 
E. Faye Butler, I enjoy watching her work. Every moment is alive with intention, every note and every word is about telling the story. It’s like watching a masterclass.
