Faith revived Flight 12 as a UTA organization after its hiatus due to COVID. Faith served three semesters as President. She organized weekly rehearsals, public performances, workshops, and guest speakers. The improv troupe learns various short form games, long form scene-work, and fun, witty group exercises!

Faith served as artistic director for UTA’s “Theatre For Change Project.” Faith managed nine student playwrights, directors, and over forty actors. She oversaw the casting process, created programs, and successfully put on two nights of performances. She also directed one of the ten-minute pieces that explored themes of toxic masculinity, body dysmorphia, and gym culture.

Ironically, Faith was cast within “Room Service” as The Director while working outside the play as the assistant director. She was in charge of blocking and directing the infamous food gorging scene, preparing understudies for their Saturday understudy matinee, and performing each night. She then created an undergraduate research poster presentation to relate her experience and learnings to the UTA community.

While working at Circle Theatre as a box office intern, Faith was granted the opportunity to conduct research for “Artemisia” by Lauren Gunderson (who she even got to meet!) Her dramaturgy primarily consisted of highlighting Artemisia Gentileschi’s famous paintings featured in the play. She’s also done dramaturgy for “The Crucible” and “The Importance of Being Earnest.”

Faith took a Physical Theatre class at UTA under director Felicia Bertch. She explored European clown and devised a piece unique to her clown’s personality. Her clown was named “Big Poppa Ozrab.” This clown was keen on making a huge mess onstage, interacting closely with the audience, and roasting viewers without ever speaking a single word.

Faith planned and organized UTA’s first ever Saturday Night Live event complete with student-written sketches, a “celebrity” host, musical guest, and a weekend update segment. She wrote and directed two sketches that were audience favorites! Flight 12 and Black Theatre Society worked together to put on a hilarious night of comedy that will continue to be an annual UTA tradition!
