About

Eva_Head_Shots-3465-Edit.jpg

Eva's driving artistic force is joy. After having spent years working as an advocate for domestic violence and sexual assault victims, she believes there is magic and revolution in revealing hope through plays. Her favorite theater projects point the way toward light while embracing the darkness innate to the human experience. Eva thrives in teams that view love, community, and gratitude as the most powerful tools for survival.

Eva recently earned her MFA at University of Houston's Professional Actor Training Program, where she was a stage combat teaching assistant and studied intimacy direction. She is an alum of the Commonwealth Shakespeare Company's Apprentice Program, and studied opera at the Bel Canto Institute in Florence, Italy. Outside of theater, Eva loves historical and vintage fashion, foraging, and trying to make stray animals like her.

You’re by Sylvia Plath

Clownlike, happiest on your hands,   

Feet to the stars, and moon-skulled,   

Gilled like a fish. A common-sense   

Thumbs-down on the dodo’s mode.   

Wrapped up in yourself like a spool,   

Trawling your dark as owls do.   

Mute as a turnip from the Fourth   

Of July to All Fools’ Day,

O high-riser, my little loaf.

 

Vague as fog and looked for like mail.   

Farther off than Australia.

Bent-backed Atlas, our traveled prawn.   

Snug as a bud and at home   

Like a sprat in a pickle jug.   

A creel of eels, all ripples.   

Jumpy as a Mexican bean.   

Right, like a well-done sum.   

A clean slate, with your own face on.
