Name: Madeleine Rose Parsigian
What is your current project? The Untold Yippie Project
Where are you performing your show and why is it a good fit for your production?
Access Theater, because a) it allows us to be intimately in the round and b) is easily accessible from the subway!
What’s next for you?
I am hoping to mount The Untold Yippie Project in a larger space for a longer run! The goal is to get as many people as possible to see this important American story.
What is the name of the last show you saw?
Little Foxes
Any advice for your peers?
Directing is an act of facilitation, not dictation. Meaningful communication is the most important ingredient to positive collaboration. In my opinion, this is the best way to create a piece of theater.
