“In all that I do, I aspire to make the impossible possible. I love creating worlds that the audience and actors alike can believe in, worlds that are tactile, that invite you in, and encourage you to lose yourself. I always strive to approach theatrical storytelling from a sensory level.
I have found that taking this approach to the storytelling process not only benefits the audience, but also the actors and designers. It is my firm belief that the theatrical experience begins well in advance of the first lines of dialogue. The stories that have always impacted me the most are the ones that make me feel as though I have been transported to an extraordinary reality from the moment I enter the space.”
- Austen Elizabeth Edwards
“If this represents the quality of artists currently coming out of UCF's drama program, I have firm faith in our theatrical future.”
