Current and Upcoming Work
(aka 'DANG that girl is busy!')
Charlotte's Web with MVCCT
It's never too late to learn new things and Renana is super excited to be directing her first musical this spring for Mount Vernon Community Children's Theatre. A classic and well-deserved favorite, Charlotte's Web features 46 children ages 8-14 from school across the region. More information about the production, which opens April 6th, as well as tickets can be found at: https://www.mvcct.org/productions
Graduate Work!
Renana is thrilled to announce she has begun her graduate work in Educational Theatre for Colleges and Communities at New York University. She will be traveling to and from New York City over the next three summers to take courses while continuing her full time work at Kaiser Permanente's Educational Theatre.
Professional Development
Renana is currently helping to develop new work for Kaiser Permanente's Educational Theatre as well as taking class at the Theatre Lab.
In November Renana will be going up to NYC to take a Directing for Melodrama workshop with Emmanuelle Delpech (faculty at Iron Pig Theatre) at the Movement Theatre Studio.
Last December she went up to NYC for a master puppetry workshop at Movement Theatre Studio with Tom Lee (original puppeteer for War Horse).
Last February Renana took another three-day workshop led by Emmanuelle Delpech on Directing for the Ensemble.
As a Helen Hayes New Play Judge, Renana sees every professional production of a New Play or New Adaptation in the eligible regions of DC, Maryland and Virginia. She is proud and honored to have received the nomination required to serve as a judge and many of these productions have inspired her own development as an artist.
