Ali is proud and humbled that her play Deadheads received its first workshop in New York with Lyra Theater Company, directed by Noam Shapiro and featuring Bonnie Antosh as Sadie and Ross Hamman as Ethan. Through an immersive rehearsal process, Ali had the privilege of collaborating with these generous, talented, and thoughtful actors to make changes to her script in anticipation of its upcoming reading in Alaska (Last Frontier Theatre Conference 2016) and international premiere production in Australia (The Owl and Cat Theatre, Melbourne). More exciting Deadheads announcements to come!

Sunday December 6, 2015 at 7pm

Pure House | The Collective Sex | Brooklyn, NY

Ali is proud to announce that she has become a company member of The Collective Sex: a space for storytelling, a container for vulnerability, a site for intersectionality. Once you start talking about sex, it’s never about sex.

It’s mission: to transform our culture into one that approaches sex with open communication, vulnerability, intentionality, and presence. More information about the collective can be found here: http://www.thecollectivesex.com/

Each month The Collective Sex holds a storytelling salon, based on a theme. Last month at THE(SEX)TALK Ali shared a story (who taught me to count the men?) about the harmful role body image can play in shaping a young girl’s sexual education. Please join her at The Collective Sex’s next salon– A(SEXY)WINTER– on Sunday December 6 at 7pm to see what story Ali will share next! Tickets can be purchased here: http://asexywinter.splashthat.com/
