Josephine Czarnecki

Director, Fight Director, Writer

Josephine has been directing for over ten years, starting with youth and teen theatre and moving to working with university students and professional shows. She graduated Southwestern University with a BA in English Literature, and completed her MFA in London with Honours at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama for Advanced Theatre Practice. 

Her interest in theatre started with dabbling in theatrical swordplay, which she now choreographs professionally, and her work tends to focus on the fantastical, adventurous, and feminist in scope and style. 

Josephine is certified in several weapon systems by the British Association of Dramatic Combat and British Academy of Stage and Screen Combat, and has interned for Santa Cruz Shakespeare under Kit Wilder, as well as the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland under award-winning fight director Jonathan Toppo.

Darwin Garrett

Director, Writer, Fight Choreographer

Darwin is a graduate of Southern Oregon University in Ashland, Oregon, with a major in Theatre Arts, which is where he recieved his certification in broadsword, rapier, and hand-to-hand combat through Dueling Arts International under Jon Toppo.

Fascinated with all forms of storytelling, Darwin thoroughly enjoys exploring the artsitic potential of prose as well as playwriting, and (when time permits it) tabletop roleplaying and video games! With a penchant for the fantastical, the surreal, and the absurd, Darwin has a interest in stories of the queer and jewish experience. 

When down on his luck, you can usually find Darwin reading tarot cards for five pounds a fortune in the basement of pubs. He denies any liability for ill-fortune as a result of one of his readings.

Why Gay Innocent Heartless?

"As you look at Wendy you may see her hair becoming white, and her figure little again, for all this happened long ago. Jane is now a common grown-up, with a daughter called Margaret; and every spring-cleaning time, except when he forgets, Peter comes for Margaret and takes her to Neverland, where she tells him stories about himself, to which he listens eagerly. When Margaret grows up she will have a daughter, who is to be Peter's mother in turn; and thus it will go on, so long as children are gay and innocent and heartless."

-J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan
