Intimacy Director

Conflicted Cuties of Color by Jasmine Sharma

(Short-film Directed and Produced by Mikayla Stanley and Roman Sanchez)

If you're a woman of color with a white legacy partner at ***Unidentified Ivy League School***, you may get tapped on the shoulder. This secret society exists as like, alcoholics anonymous for interracial couples. But when a transfer student from Cornell is invited to pledge, the society discovers her partner is actually not white, but MIAMI CUBAN, okay?!?!

A Nigerian immigrant couple trying to create roots in a new country begin trying for a baby. What should be a simple process of love making amongst husband and wife turns into a tumultuous, life altering night of betrayal, submission and pain. Is their love strong enough to keep them anchored to each other? Or will they admit defeat, disappointing not only themselves but everyone back home? (Photo by Suzu Sakai)

Mary Me A Little by Stephen Sondheim

(Yale Cabaret 55)

What’s LOVE got to do with it?? Marry Me A Little follows the story of two strangers moving into a cramped New York apartment while navigating personal space, sexual tensions, and what love looks like for one another. In this reimagined version of the show, the two strangers are Black queer men who learn how to mesh their big personalities and their bigger identities all into a less-than-spacious home.

Watch the men fall in love, fall out of love, and everything in between. (Photo by Suzu Sakia)
