Light Shines Forever (2013)
A multimedia stage performance weaving together different stories and spaces of mourning and memorial on multiple screens, including: footage of my late father performing stand-up comedy and talking about me on talk shows; a living, local comedian named Grave Digger who does stand-up for his family at funerals; and the construction of a Muslim cemetery in Durham, North Carolina.
