Let’s build a safer, more inclusive theatre community—together.

I offer customized consulting services to help regional and community theatres create clear, practical, and empowering policies that reflect your company’s unique culture and needs. Whether you’re starting from scratch or strengthening existing practices, I’ll work with you to design:

• Comprehensive policies that prohibit discrimination, harassment, and other forms of misconduct

• Audience codes of conduct that set expectations for respectful engagement

• Step-by-step procedures for reporting, investigating, and resolving complaints

• Targeted training sessions for leadership, production teams, staff, artists, crew, and volunteers

With a foundation in civil rights and employment discrimination law, I bring a trauma-informed, experience-based approach to policy design—so your team is prepared not just to react to misconduct, but to prevent it.

Schedule a free consultation to see how I can help make your theatre a model for accountability, safety, and respect.

Add Legal Insight. Deepen the Impact. Spark Conversation.

Elevate your production by adding rich legal and historical context that deepens your cast and audience’s connection to the material. I collaborate with theatre companies to complement existing dramaturgical work with engaging, accessible presentations that explore the legal and civil rights issues at the heart of your play or musical.

With a unique lens shaped by my experience in civil rights and employment law, I help unpack the real-world stakes behind the stories on stage—making performances more powerful, relevant, and resonant for today’s audiences.

Past Presentation Topics Include:

• Labor Rights & Newsies (2019)
  Explored the rise of labor unions in the 19th century, contextualizing the 1899 New York newsboys’ strike through the lens of 21st-century workers' rights movements in the U.S. and abroad.

• Jury Selection & 12 Angry Jurors (2018)
  Provided a compelling overview of the jury system in the U.S., examining the history of race and gender discrimination in voir dire, and key criminal law principles still relevant today.

• Reproductive Rights & What Every Girl Should Know (2017)
  Traced the evolution of reproductive rights in the U.S., including the development of oral and intrauterine contraceptives, the legacy of Margaret Sanger, and modern legal frameworks like Title X and pivotal Supreme Court decisions.

Let’s collaborate to make your next production not only artistically rich, but socially and historically grounded.
