Untitled: A Quarantine Playlist
We Out Here
After being asked to do a pre-recorded concert, I was left with the question, “How?” How can I connect with an audience through a screen? As a live performer and theatre artist, there’s nothing that compares to the energy exchange between audience and performer. So instead of trying to recreate that feeling through a screen, I’m inviting you to experience an intimate look at my life in quarantine through song in the hopes that it in some way reflects yours, allowing us to connect on a different level. Sometimes we laugh; sometimes we cry; sometimes we don’t know what the hell is going on, but through it all there’s a song for every moment and every mood. I hope you can relate to my quarantine playlist, and I urge you to take care of your mental, emotional, and physical health. Stay connected to loved ones; stay safe, and stay informed.
