Dana Aber,

Performer, Producer, Personality

β€œMika is my go-to touchstone collaborator. Not only have I enjoyed being under their direction and performing their work, I’ve worked with them at every stage of my own development as a theatre writer. As a composer-collaborator, Mika took on a lyric considered by others to be too challenging and emotionally difficult, and made magic. As a dramaturg for my next work-in-progress, they are constantly supportive and creatively inspirational, sensitive to my process while also bolstering me to take risks. On top of being an excellent human, they go out of their way to create space for me in the rehearsal room, and are always game to discuss my actor instincts and writer impulses. Mika has quickly become my #1 recommendation for other writers who need dramaturgical guidance or want a fresh directorial approach.”
