Producer
up your aesthetic

Devised and adapted from the Ancient Greek Myths of the Amazons, up your aesthetic disrupts the myths’ oppressive origins and reclaims the stories through a ritual for othered, excluded, and historically misrepresented bodies. Since its inception as a capstone project at Wesleyan University, up your aesthetic has featured a team of female and non-binary theatremakers. Megumi produced the East Coast tour, which featured performances in Vermont, upstate New York, Philadelphia, and the Capital Fringe Festival in Washington D.C.
