I performed in Mary Zimmerman's adaptation of The Arabian Nights, staged by Constellation Theatre Company at the Source Theatre, in downtown Washington, DC:
Mary Zimmerman's acclaimed adaptation weaves ancient tales of wonder into a rich and poetic testament to the transformational power of storytelling. Each night King Shahryar marries and murders a young woman until the brilliant Scheherezade is brought to his bed. She delays her death by entrancing the king with tales of romance, lust, comedy, mystery, sensuality and sorrow.
