6 years ago I dared Marlee Fleisher to create a solo on me,
“I dare you to create a solo in 2 hours where I get to pick the music, the costume, and the title.”
A little controlling, but what can I say, I know what I like. After a successful first run of this collaboration we decided to keep the title and create five more iterations of the same kind of dare over the course of my time at Adelphi University.
From props to speeches and dance films - Yak Milk was an opportunity to try something on, expand on the boundaries we had placed on ourselves. "What if" was the question and "Yes" was the answer.
"Yak Milk!" is coming back for a revival! For the first time ever, this will be a full evening performance of all the Yak Milk solos that have been created since 2018. The work will also feature the premiere of "Yak Mviilk", a new solo created just for the revival.
Based on a dare and inspired by a dress, "Yak Milk!" will feature nostalgia, fantasies, confessions and some dance. Come ready to laugh and bring something soft to throw.
ADMINISTRATION: I am the Associate Director for Moving Forward, an innovative dance-intensive and non-profit organization for young artists founded by Madison Hicks. I also work full-time as the Education and Marketing Associate at Gibney, supporting Alexandra Wells and the GibneyPRO Program. I freelance and assist creatives across New York with social media and project management.
DANCING: I am a founding collaborator of Meat Market Productions, a Dallas-based dance theater company (Artistic Director: Marlee Fleisher). With Meat Market, I am producing and performing an evening-length conglomeration of solos all titled YAK MILK. Tickets are available now. Additionally - I try never to miss a Tuesday or a Thursday ballet class in studio 5-2, and with confidence I can say everything I make in the kitchen tastes better when we take a moment to slow dance.
I have worked as a program administrator, dramaturge, rehearsal assistant, social media manager, company liaison, and more! I love making dance happen & helping fulfill the dreams of other artists!
Throughout college, I collaborated and created numerous works! Following graduation, I have presented my work across New York City and continue to pursue presenting and creating new work.
From repertory to new creations, I have had the opportunity to work with amazing choreographers throughout the past 10 years on and off-campus.
