River Wise

I am a 21-year-old queer & transgender artist from Des Moines, Iowa. What I love most about theater is that it gives the audience (be it a full house of family and friends, or a singular stranger) a chance to escape the outside world around them and get lost in an entirely new one. Or, better yet, a chance to reflect on the outside world by experiencing a story through someone else's eyes, whether those are similar to or vastly different from their own.
