Ethics of Teaching With and Without Touch Course

  • Fort Lauderdale, FL (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Dance teachers in every setting have long used touch as a teaching method. It is employed for correction or support, to provide a goal, impart kinesthetic feedback, or other reasons. With disclosures of sexual misconduct at top artistic institutions, the rise of the #MeToo movement, and an emphasis on trauma-informed methods of teaching, we must address the role touch plays in dance class.

Choreographing a Rape Scene to go into a Feminist Play

  • Fort Lauderdale, FL (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

with LakeHouseRanchdotPNG at Main Street Players

A dark comedy about bad art gone worse, hypocrisy and the juvenile sandbox that is theatre. A devised play takes on a sinister reality when onstage violence blurs into the actual and those involved question an act on the ambiguous end of assault.

WINK

  • Fort Lauderdale, FL (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

A play like you have never seen before by Jen Silverman. It’s absurd and ridiculous. It’s horrifying. It’s all too relevant. Join Thinking Cap Theatre for their first show of 2026.

A wickedly funny, wildly inventive, and fiercely unpredictable play.

In WINK by Jen Silverman, a seemingly ordinary marriage spirals into delicious chaos after one very bad decision involving the family cat. What follows is a wickedly funny, wildly inventive, and fiercely unpredictable examination of love, power, and survival. Wink peels back the veneer of civility to reveal something far more profound about the human condition and the instincts we try to hide that refuse to stay buried.

Only 50 tickets per show.

Performance time varies by day.

Tuesday tickets include pizza!

M.I.A. Premiers on Peacock

The new Peacock series, M.I.A., filmed entirely in South Florida, drops on Peacock!

Restless in the Florida Keys, Etta Tiger Jonze dreams of a glittering life in Miami. But when her family’s drug-running business shatters in tragedy, Etta embarks on a dangerous journey through Miami’s neon-lit underbelly that will define who she is and what she’s ultimately capable of. 

Shot in Miami, M.I.A. is executive produced by creator Bill Dubuque (Ozark), showrunner Karen Campbell (Dexter, Outlander), and Alethea Jones (Spider-Noir), who also directed the first two episodes of this new Peacock crime series. The cast features Shannon Gisela, Cary Elwes, Danay Garcia, Brittany Adebumola, Dylan T. Jackson, Alberto Guerra, Maurice Compte, Gerardo Celasco, and Marta Milans.

I had the honor of being the Intimacy Coordinator for this series.

Consent, Boundaries, and Needs in the Dance Studio

Presented by NDEO.

How do we, as dance educators, facilitate conversations around consent, boundaries, and needs in the dance studio that honor the bodily autonomy of dancers AND encourage creative risk-taking? 

Join Intimacy Direction in Dance co-founder, and author of Care-full Creativity in Theatre and Dance Education: Consent-Forward, Trauma-Informed, Psychologically Safe Movement Pedagogy, Nicole Perry for practical tools and conversations around consent (which goes far beyond touch) and creativity. Nicole is an award-winning intimacy professional and choreographer, as well as a dance and movement educator, passionate about supporting other teachers as they create their own pedagogies of care. This webinar offers a practical tool to help students as discomfort v. unsafe, a template for boundary conversations, and a discussion on when an Intimacy Professional can support the creative process in a way that benefits both the dancers and the choreographer. 

Webinar is free for members of NDEO, but registration is required.

How to Break in a Glove- World Premiere

How to Break in a Glove- World Premiere

A world premiere play developed through City Theatre's HOMEGROWN playwright development program designed to give local writers the time, tools, and guidance to create new work.  

 Miami, 1999. A boy grips a baseball glove like it’s the last solid thing in his life. Around him, three generations of family unravel and collide: an unyielding grandfather, a grandmother carrying the weight, a father desperate to matter, and a mother caught between rebellion and duty. One night changes everything. Secrets break open. Bonds are tested. Love is stretched thin. Like a baseball glove, they must stretch and soften to hold on.
