Upcoming Solo Shows

When Grace, a children’s book author with writer’s block, visits a floatation tank in hopes of unsticking what’s been stuck, the unexpected happens…an earthquake hits! When the ground crumbles beneath her, Grace free falls into the Pacific Ocean where she meets two unlikely shipmates; a meek crab and a mighty peacock. As Grace begins to suspect she trapped in a storybook with no ending, the three surprising friends embark on an epic aquatic adventure to discover who’s really writing their destinies.

Surfing through reality and fantastical fiction, will Grace learn to ride the tides from turmoil to tranquility, or will the dangers of the deep blue prove to be more perilous than her own subconscious undoing?
