Besides creating performance works, I often build the whole event within which the performances take place. Here are some examples:
CURRENT PROJECT
THE WATER PROJECT: Based in Tucson
AZ, in celebration of World Water Day, this festival addesses local,
regional, and global water issues vital to our collective future.
It includes a performance, installations, lecture series, and information
tables. The project is developed through an innovative process with
cross-sector collaborations. March 24-28, 2010.

the stage with my show EARTHQUAKES.

THE BUMPIN' BIG TOP: As the Founder, Artistic Director, Programmer, and Featured Performer of a circus, I had presented 40 performing groups. They included dance, theatre, puppetry, film/video, live music, sideshows, fire spinning, installations, cheap art, stilt-walking, clowns, a merry-go-round, and carnival concessions.
2000
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION (RNC) DEMONSTRATIONS OF
2000: I was the Lead Organizer, Spokesperson, and one
of hundreds of puppet makers at the “Ministry of Puppetganda”,
the famous huge puppet warehouse that was unlawfully pre-emptively
shut down by the FBI during the RNC demonstrations of 2000. The
police destroyed all of the puppets — over 400 of them.
