How Do I Look? premieres at ODC Theater in San Francisco, April 17-19, then moves to On the Boards in Seattle in May. I can’t wait to share this new work with you.

Get your tickets.
After Saturday’s show, we’ll have a talk-back with me, my Dramaturg/Director, Jesse Hewit & Oasis Arts.
Before Sunday’s show we’ll have a coffee hour with me & ODC Theater Creative Director, Chloë Zimberg, & perhaps a special guest.
The ODC Theater Lobby will feature work by Jim Winters!
I’ve been having so much fun in the studio with Jesse & had an incredibly productive residency at On the Boards with Lighting Designer Del Medoff.
I’ll share more about process over the coming weeks.

How Do I Look? - the most vain, mundane and loaded question. With it, I dig past glossy platitudes and flattering exaggerations into the hot mess of perception, subjectivity, identity and taste. How Do I Look? throws itself into the space, sometimes a chasm, between how we see ourselves and how the world sees us. It resists dogmatic answers and leans into philosophical modes of questioning, considering the methodology of looking: by what means do we see the world and each other? Can self-knowledge help me to know others? If I roast myself, will you like me more?
