Everything is Fake

Everything is Fake is a short film about ambition, visibility, and the compromises people make inside systems built on performance. Set against the pressure of corporate life and digital image-making, the film follows a young man trying to secure his future while losing control of what is true, what is strategic, and what still belongs to him.

On-set images are featured here until final stills are ready.

Choice

Next production: New York Theater Festival, May 28-30, 2026

Choice is a one-act play centered on a recently released man and an off-duty detective whose late-night conversation becomes a test of pressure, survival, and moral compromise. The piece reflects my interest in contradiction, social tension, and the impossible decisions people face when power closes in.

Borders

Americana Festival, 2024

Borders was presented with Chelsea Rep as part of the Americana Festival in 2024. The production sits close to the core of my theater practice: intimate space, sharp emotional stakes, and work designed to leave an audience rattled and reflective.
