He also founded and runs his own theater company called Ecce Homo. One of his most recent works premiered at Summerworks this past August, entitled The Ecstasy of Mother Teresa or Agnes Bojaxhui Superstar. His work aims to merge the visual, emotional and political, and his most recent work The Pastor Phelps Project: A Fundamentalist cabaret looks at the Westboro Baptist Church. FROM THE PASTOR PHELPS PROJECT PROGRAM: “Warning! Bible preaching ahead! Pastor Fred Phelps and the good people of the Westboro Baptist Church are here to explain why God hates fags and America is doomed. It’s homophobia versus burlesque in a musical cabaret showdown. Stare into the abyss of fundamentalism; sexy political satire with razor wire barbs.”
