Radical Listening Development Method

Using the same cultivation methods that I have won grants for in the past, I plan to continue developing this work through audience surveys, social media crowdsourcing, and group story breaking. Those who participate will also be offered professional credits for writing, story development, producing and performing.

Through crowdsourcing, I collect disparate true experiences and triangulate prevalent themes and topics. Afterwards, I conduct writer's room style dialogue and movement sessions. Born from raw experimentation and wrangled through structured improvisation, I present every stage of work through showings and peer feedback sessions, both digitally and in person (when possible). This approach ensures I get early commitment from potential performers and audiences, present work that reflects unique stories while representing universal experiences.

i'm writing something that attempts to be honest about this, if you'd like to contribute. thanks.
