The Skriker - Dir. H. Tait Brencher
April, 2026; Nu Box Theatre
For this production of the Skriker, I created two sound beds, one for the human world and one to represent the faerie world, which mirrored the speech patterns of the Skriker and therefore the style of the world we created: stolen fragments of everyday sounds and phrases strung together. The main challenge was to compose the Faerie Song, the big ensemble number, for which Caryl Churchill wrote lyrics but never attached any pre-existing music or even a melody to. For this I took creative liberty in splicing up the chunk of lyrics and weaving it into and around the spoken text during the scene so that it all became one, continuous phantasmagoria of almost overwhelming sound and sensation.
The Goo - Dir. Eliza Palter
November, 2025; The Chain Theatre
This original play by Rose Dallimore (my sister!) is a contemporary adaptation of The Importance of Being Earnest, by Oscar Wilde. The director chose to stylize it as if it were a sit-com, so I created a sit-com-style intro theme for the show as a whole — as well as mini intros for each character’s first entrance — that gradually falls apart as “JUNE” (this world’s lie that comes to life as a character) unravels the friend group’s lies and forces them out of the sit-com into their authentic selves.
M4M (Measure for Measure) - Dir. Asa Nestlehutt
November, 2024 & February, 2025; Purgatory Bar
For this production of Measure for Measure, which was set (and performed) in a queer bar, we represented freedom and rebellion against Angelo with live punk music (performed by the Bum Babies), and Angelo’s iron fisted government with cold, industrial techno. To this end, I recorded Angelo’s monologues throughout the play and layered them over and into a techno set that the actor then did interpretive movements to.
What Moves Me - Dir. Narushi Fukuda
April, 2024, Fordham Studio Theatre
A devised, experimental musical following one man who relives the stages of life through the memories of others as he makes sense of death. The lyrics are comprised of conversations with and contributions from the cast members that I then set to music.
