Tongues & Savage/Love by Sam Shepard at Boston Conservatory at Berklee, directed by Mark Krawczyk

That's right! I'm also a director! I'm directing an ensemble of six wonderful young people at Boston Conservatory at Berklee in a really daring devised production of two of Sam Shepard's most esoteric pieces. Please come check it out! The very talented Luis A. Mendoza, a freshman at the conservatory, designed this poster and is a member of the ensemble. That's the nature of the kind of the students I work with at Boston Conservatory at Berklee. They're incredibly talented on multiple levels just like this young man. Please come check all of them out!

About the Play
Sea levels are rising, trees are being ravaged, and jazz may be the only thing that can save our humanity from the Man of Steel. Dance on Bones is inspired by and structured around jazz music, riffing off of the folklore of the jazz scenes in St. Petersburg, Russia and New Orleans, Louisiana; creation myths; flooding cities; and the current environmental circumstances washing away our shores.


About the Playwright
Dave White is a playwright and Associate Professor at Towson University. His work has taken him on several fellowships to Slovakia, Poland, and Russia, including a Linkachev Cultural Fellowship in St. Petersburg, Russia for Dance on Bones. Dave’s plays have been presented by theaters in Colorado, Maryland, Missouri, New York, South Carolina, Texas, West Virginia; Art Faq in Moscow, Russia; and the Ilkhom Theatre in Tashkent, Uzbekistan.
