SPECIAL THANKS

Thank you to Bill T. Jones and Janet Wong for this tremendous residency with New York Live Arts, and Slobodan Randjelović and Jon Stryker, and the Mellon Foundation, for making it possible. Hannah Emerson Jernigan for your profound sensitivity, exacting attention to detail, and ongoing care for us all as a producer (and so much more). Your support made us free to make the art. Kyle Maude for your grounding presence, humor, rigor, and advocacy for this project. Dages Juvelier Keates for being a brain-heart partner and doula for this project from its nascent shape and through all its iterations. Amy Gernux for grounding and deepening this project every step of the way with your multi-armed, multi-tasking care. To Nick Vaughan and Jake Margolin for the decade + of collaboration that now feels like a root system that feeds my creative process. You make every idea, every tech rehearsal, better and clearer. Thank you performers James Barrett, Kara Brody, Amy Gernux, Shayla-Vie Jenkins and Jennifer Nugent for your incredible presence commitment from the first rehearsal laying the groundwork for this world and Miguel Alejandro Castillo, Cory Seals, Eliza Tappan, Carlo Antonio Villanueva and Jo Warren for jumping in right in the middle and being exactly what we needed. Thank you Sophia Brous for shaping our sound world with rigor, play and a wild and inspiring spirit (and equally expressive elegant hand gestures). Thank you Ryan Gamblin and Guillaume Malaret for bringing alive the weather of sound so gorgeously. Mandy Ringger, my rock, you light up every single one of my worlds just right. Karen Boyer for coming in and making us all look better with every stitch and dye. Yehuda Duenyas for teaching us so much about intimacy, consent, and how real risk is possible when we slow down and listen to each other. To Emily Vizina for your aplomb and groundedness in managing this production. And to Connie for holding me in every way, from every distance, in every moment more beautifully than I could ever imagined. Profound Gratitude to my commissioners circle Susan Foster, Eleanor Friedman, Ash + Jamie Jones, Dennis Matthies, John Robinson, and Paul and Lauryn Siegel.
