Becky has built her career on interviewing people, collecting stories, and collaborating with individuals and communities to get the story right - doing “with” instead of “to.” She doesn’t make the story, she brings it to light. Her work has been produced across Nebraska and throughout the country, and in conjunction with each production, she’s worked as a teaching artist, developed curricula, and fostered collaborations to shine a light on and explore solutions to the central themes of each work.
Her art doesn’t just entertain, it makes a difference.
