An older female artist develops a tempestuous relationship with a younger jazz musician with anyone's guess of who's using whom.

Hello there and welcome!  Thanks so much for considering my project. I would like to raise funds to direct the world premiere of my first full-length play, The Natural Act, by a fantastic playwright and friend, Charles Watson here in New York. For over 10 years, I've freelanced in theater production doing everything from hanging lights to running light/sound boards to stage managing and my very greatest creative love, directing, all while working full-time in classical radio.  I have had the pleasure of directing 6 one-acts at various theaters around New York to wonderful support from friends, family and colleagues. This project represents a long-standing goal for me as I would love to have the ability to fund rentals, rehearsal space, designers and actors in this effort.
