Storytime: Toy Soldiers and Mice is a dreamy exploration of a dystopia, divided into cult-like tribes of belief and trade. It follows two tribes: the wealthy, pretentious artists who reject love, and some rural hippies, who view love as a rite of passage. This piece explores the irruptive collision of these groups. This story is presented and narrated by a wayward street performer, in a distant time and place.
The Ladder enters the world of purgatory, and it's curse of repetition that is cast unwillinging and uncontrollably. This piece is inspired by the 1990 Film, "Jacob's Ladder" as well as it's titular biblical context. TJ created this piece alongside composer Shaun Chen, who is seen conducting his original score of the same name.
Dahmer is a new musical written by Ian Gluck and Payton Justice. TJ choreographed as well as collaborated as a co-creator/writer.
