Praise for my current work in development Anne Elliot's Queer Little Heart:
“I used to know a costume designer who would say ‘nothing shows onstage like velvet.’ And I feel like this play reads like velvet shows onstage. Like it's just luscious. It captures all the angles of light. It's just so beautiful.”
“I’m loving the way you’ve woven dialogue from all the other novels into this. It’s like Austen’s greatest hits!”
“This show does a great job of capturing the discomfort of generational trauma and the pain that can come with being a cycle-breaker.”
“I really appreciated this through line of love and grief being sort of competing and intertwined and symbiotic all at the same time.”
“Another thing I found kinda ballsy and fascinating was just this imagined world where queer individuals exist openly during this historical period. All the same Austen crazy social mores & pressures & misunderstandings, just open to queer characters, too. So fun!”
“I want it to be a mini-series so I can stay in touch with your super well-developed characters. Honestly, I keep thinking about them all. They’re complex! ...I do wish for a sequel, but for now I’ll enjoy another read-through!”
