TONIGHT: THE MOON 72ND SHOW AT UNION POOL →
themoonshow: Summer can be a turbulent time for many: wave pool operators, emergency room doctors and the dozens of water-park enthusiasts shuttled so hastily between the two. But here on The Moon, waters are calm like a Sea of Tranquility! It’s time to quit worrying and come on down to Union Pool…

THE UNSPEAKABLE ACT at Artforum.com →
“The tip-off came largely from the casting of Tallie Medel, in a remarkable debut as Jackie, a sixteen-year-old girl who is passionately in love with her slightly older brother. Medel resembles the young Béatrice Romand of Rohmer’s Claire’s Knee (1970), both in her idiosyncratic dark beauty and her forthright, intelligent presentation of self.” AMY TAUBIN

BAMCinemaFest Screening of THE UNSPEAKABLE ACT... →
New York premiere of Dan Sallitt’s THE UNSPEAKABLE ACT.  This also marks my premiere as the lead in a [very very good] feature film.  The lineup for BAMCinemaFest is awesome, I saw several of these films at the Sarasota Film Festival this April and personally recommend V/H/S and Welcome to Pine Hill. PSYCHED!

EVERYTHING A MONSTER IS NOT: A Webseries →
Here is an important body of work.  We made this immediately post-graduation and we were all sad, so Daniel Scheinert took a record of it.  It’s very funny and moving, and you can see me in my classrooms in fall of 2008.
