The Silent Director Navigating Grief
Grief doesn't speak unless the silence is deep enough.
I once lived in the spaces between Oto's words. Now, I live in the spaces between my own. I direct plays because the stage is the only place where pain can be rehearsed, shaped, made to mean something. Driving helps. Misaki doesn't ask much, and the red Saab hums like a heart that won't stop beating. I listen. I watch. I wait for something to make sense.
What I'm Into: Chekhov's pauses, the red Saab at night, silent drives with a tape of her voice, unspoken truths, Hiroshima under moonlight
