Highlight Reel of "Storytime" (2020)

Storytime: Toy Soldiers and Mice is a dystopian story following two tribes: pretentious artists who reject love, and rural hippies, who view connection as a rite of passage. This piece explores the irruptive collision of these groups. Storytime is presented and narrated by a wayward busker, in a distant time and place.

"The Ladder" (2019)

The Ladder is inspired by the 1990 Film, "Jacob's Ladder" as well as it's titular biblical context. TJ devised this piece alongside composer Shaun Chen, who is seen conducting his original score of the same name.

To Be: Temporary States (2023)

This new work premiered at Bridge for Dance in NYC.  It explores the act of soliloquy in every day life- how the literal, external space we exist in can be a harsh disruption to our internal monologue. 

Highlight Reel of "American Idiot" at Boston Center for the Arts

TJ choreographed and co-directed this production of American Idiot. This production explored fate riddled themes, including astrology, religion, mythology, and tarot. It is best described as a fever dream about the history of rebellion. After all, punk rock is timeless.

You Could Drive a Person Crazy (2021)

TJ created her version of this iconic tune from Sondheim's Company in collaboration with her cohort at Dance Lab New York's Broadway Choreography Intensive, under the direction and mentorship of Val Salgado and Josh Prince.

"Cabaret" from And the World Goes 'Round (2020)

TJ choreographed and assistant directed this production of And the World Goes 'Round. This rendition of "Cabaret" reflects it's orchestration, rejecting any assumed associations with the tune.
