About Ava
Hi! My name is Ava. I was born and raised in the heart of the theater district to two theater people. I was accepted into the Professional Performing Arts School for middle, and stayed there for high school. I was a drama major and studied under Waterwell Theater Company. As soon as it was possible for me to do so, I started taking assistant directing and dramaturgy roles. I liked helping people understand the material, and I seemed to get Shakespeare better than anyone I'd ever met. I was accepted into BADA’s Midsummer Conservatory Program on that basis. Not as an actor, but as a scholar and dramaturg. I was regularly called upon to help, which of course, I liked best. I attended Mary Baldwin University for college because of their world-class Shakespearean biased theater program. I studied interdisciplinarily there because I know that theater is not stagnant and is both informing the world around us as it-self is a reflection of the same world. In that vein I recently started a substack mainly focused on composer and lyricist Stephen Sondheim, where I am examining his work in the context of its chronology, and through personal narrative nonfiction. I love this work, and love helping, let me please help you.

In a drama session and in writing sessions, a lesson with me always begins with the text. To make sure we understand it, we may use written, oral, or physical techniques. I am a big fan of going big so we can scale back. I am not afraid of mistakes! I know in my own writing and experience, that before you make the "right choice" you may have to make all the wrong choices first. I once re-wrote a draft of an essay on "Anyone Can Whistle" four times before it felt true. And I didn't regret any of it because if I hadn't written them they wouldn't have made me the person I had to become to write the final version. Writing, and theater, have so many rules we can use to inform a piece. I know a lot of them, and I can teach you, so we can figure out how to use them.
