They've studied opera and classical theater, and find that the tools they've learned in those art forms translate fluidly into the creation of authentic and embodied narration. She loves play in all its forms, and believes that when we invite ourselves and others to play, we get an opportunity to look at things differently and build exciting communities and worlds together.
