WINNER! Best Short Production: Let’s Play The Game at NYTF SummerFest 2025
After directing and producing the world premiere of Iryna Scarola’s new play during the New York Theatre Festival, it was awarded BEST Short Production out of the 92 total productions presented at SummerFest 2025.
“Let’s Play the Game is a tragedy to explore the profound question: What if the universe itself is an eternal game of remembering and forgetting? Through one woman’s journey from devastating loss to understanding, this metaphysical drama suggests that perhaps death is not an ending, but rather a doorway to understanding our nature—and that those we love never truly leave but light the way.”
Twelfth Night or What You Will received top Research & Creative Achievement Award in Fine Arts Category
After adapting, directing, and producing a re-telling of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, the production was awarded the top honor in the Fine Arts category during Research & Creative Achievement Week at East Carolina University.
“Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, a story of love and mistaken identity, a story where every character gets their happy ending. Well, almost all of them. Antonio, the sea captain who rescues our leading man, ends the play being sent to the gallows amidst the merriment…with a broken heart. In this re-telling of the famed story, we focus on Antonio and his journey of unrequited love.”
