In March 2024, I made my directorial debut with Fuddy Meers by David Lindsay-Abaire. The script was an unlikely find at a discount bookstore when I was a teenager, and almost 15 years later, I never had the chance to see a production. 

​

A dark, demented American comedy with an unsettling domestic drama at its heart, Fuddy Meers gives us a kaleidoscopic world in which nothing is as it seems and hardly anyone can be understood. Trusting the wrong person can get you locked in the basement with a foul-mouthed puppet, make you kidnap a police officer, or stop you from finishing your captivating crossword puzzle. This is especially challenging if you are a sunny amnesiac like Claire who starts each morning with no idea who she, or anyone else, is.

Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright and recent Tony award winner David Lindsay-Abaire has crafted a beautifully absurd play about pain, identity, miscommunication, and, ultimately, the courageous confrontation of a traumatic past. This is an unforgettable story about a woman who can’t remember hers. And there’s a puppet… don’t forget the puppet.
