The Wonder Years (2020)
Set in the extraordinary years of the 2020s, “The Wonder Years” looks both back and forward through the eyes of Eli, the oldest of five children in the Motley family, on the tribulations and joys of growing up in the United States as a twenty something black male. With music by Grammy Awardee Laurence Hobgood, the low-fi anti-tech home movie style of the work is a nod to classic 80’s sitcoms with an open, unapologetic, and ultimately vulnerable journey filled with all the feels and even some much-needed levity.
COMING DOWN (2019)
Coming Down is an abstract, non-linear narrative about two old club kids that get together for late night mayhem.

AZEEMO SHAN SHEDIPLO
a piece created in Mumbai, India during a residency at Sumeet Nagdev Dance Arts. When using the music of Diplo a student mentioned that the beat sounded like a song from a famous Bollywood movie. When they showed me the song I knew I had to fuse the two together bridging these two cultures. This is the culmination of the students working extremely hard over the two week residency and filming gorilla style for three hours at the train stop across the street from the school where students arrive to take class. The two songs that merge were "AZEEMO SHAN SHEHESHAH" by Jodhaa Akbar and "Move Around" by Diplo.
