Watson Fellowship

LA local Actor-Director-Playwright-Researcher. I've spent the past year researching "Total Theatre", studying theatre practices throughout the world on a Watson Fellowship from Kabuki in Tokyo, to Balinese Dance in Bali, Shakespeare in Stratford-upon-Avon, Corporeal Mime in Paris, and Opera at the Dorset Opera Festival. I am back in New York, eager to get to work, and am enthusiastic to bring the skills of collaboration and global connectedness into my next theatrical/film endeavor! IG @markuptheglobe
