Paula Court is a legend. She has given so much to our performance community. She’s documented countless dancers, theater pieces, and musicians. Paula needs our help now.

Paula always told me “if you see it, you missed it.” Here are a few photos from 2019 when she followed me around as I performed “Life Traveler.”

We were newly arrived to NY and lived together in the same Soho Loft for three years. She is a marvel.

is spearheading this community fundraising gift for Paula. https://secure.givelively.org/donate/performa-inc/paula-court-support-fund Link in bio

Wrapping up 2023 with a site visit to Green-Wood. The security guards, maybe because it was cold and the whole cemetery rather empty of visitors, decided to unlock the Catacombs for us. What an eerie, resonant, and magical space. Here with Glass Clouds Ensemble: Marisa Karchin (voice), Lauren Conroy, and Raina Arnett (violins). Spring will come

What an end of year gift. Welcoming to the cast of “And Then, Now.” Here we are at Green-Wood: the sweet beginnings of creating together.

Towards peace and growth, and art. LJ (an official tour guide at Green-Wood) and I take a walk on a luscious late fall day over roots and graves and trees that soar. How do we move through our lives and treasure every life, and every living being, recognizing each other?

Film sketches. New project with , cinematographer , and composer . Thank you for sharing your very special site.

Aging Prelude, by Chemeckilerner, at The Chocolate Factory, is a powerful experience. It will stay with me.

I’m a card carrying professor of dance at Marymount Manhattan College! I’m teaching Improv II. I feel very lucky to have incredibly curious, and adventurous students. In my element. In the spirit of play and discovery.

Ms. September says: “Standing on my head I see the world upside-down. When I’m right side up, I look again with a different perspective.”
