San Francisco State School of Theater & Dance Presents New Moves 2024


Paulina Marmolejo-Brown explores a woman’s journey shaped by traditional values as she faces the crossroads between performing for the expectations of men or embracing her self- expression. Clarissa Saunders portrays a coming-of-age experience of growing up queer in a religious environment and the anger, sadness, and finally, self-acceptance that comes with the journey. Samuel Iversen-Browne asks what happens to the self when there is a void of human connection; does the soul cry out in anger, or does it simply wither and fade away from lack of care? Sam Espinosa takes on the concept of trust and how easy it is to lose trust in others and oneself and proposes that trusting oneself to accept the past and move forward is the needed step towards a brighter future. Anika Gautam illustrates the journey to self-growth and overcoming hardship caused by negativity. Ty Stevenson uses doors as a metaphor to capture the moment of a life-changing event that signifies a new stage of life with new opportunities. Jasmine Miller creates portraits of joyful love expressed in its many different forms- familial love, romantic love, love between friends, and love for oneself.
