Silent Protest| For Flint
Featured at Queen Mary University of London, Silent Protest was a silent performance art installation piece. At Queen Mary University of London it is against the rules to protest on campus so with a group of 3 other students at Queen Mary we created this piece on the campus.
Each person chose something to protest about. I chose the Flint Water Crisis.
I bathed in a tub outside in filthy water and drank food colored tonic water. A monologue that I created was recorded and posted on a tree adjacent to my tub. The audience would grab headphones and listen to my recorded monologue.
Pieces of cardboard and paint were available if anyone would want to speak for me.
Other performers who participated in the project: Olivia Wylie, Emily Collins and Matilda I.
The Yellow Wallpaper | An Experiment
This project was an adaptation and a devised theatre piece based on Charlotte Perkins Gilman's text.
The Yellow Wallpaper is originally a short story written by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. It is set in the Victorian Era and it examines a woman's journey to psychosis due to social forces, isolation, and repression. Suffering from a "slight hysterical tendency," the protagonist's doctor-husband secludes her to a room in a country home. The narrator becomes obsessed with the room's yellow wallpaper and begins to see creeping women within it.

Three Sisters | Translated by Sarah Ruhl
SUNY Purchase College Theatre and Performance department's Fall Mainstage production was Anton Chekov's Three Sisters. Sarah Ruhl's translation gives fresh and immediate re-telling of Chekhov's classic play about one family’s yearning for change.
Alia Tejeda had the opportunity to play Olga, one of Chekov's most complex characters.
