Kate Zibluk
Kate Zibluk (she/her) is currently a student at Eugene Lang College of Liberal Arts at The New School in New York City. Residing in Brooklyn, she has been able to witness a wide range of experimental theater and performance that is shaping what she wants to do in her future. So far, she’s not super sure! Kate is pretty chatty, a lover of birds and iced coffee, and in general, an extremely anxious human being (the last point is something she’s working on)! Kate has experience in working the box office at The Brick Theater, managing The Brick’s social media, doing basic theater tech, assistant stage managing Eugene Lang College’s production of “The Laramie Project” at Mabou Mines, performing in Eugene Lang College’s production of “Hoppla, We’re Alive!” at LaMama, and running around doing anything she can to be helpful.

Brzezinski and Schap present Body Stories: Hannah
Body Stories is a filmed shadow puppet series exploring the question: What is it like to be in your body? The series was inspired by interviews with Lisa Joyce, Sayeh Khorsandi, Hannah Datz, and Rashaun Fraser. Original music was composed and recorded for the project by musician Christopher Vu.
Brzezinski & Schap is the creative partnership of Caitlin Brzezinski and Libby Schap. Their distinct style features moving shadows screens, innovative light textures, and blurred lines between performer and shadow character. Flying Lessons, their premiere production, toured the northeast and New Orleans in 2019 and received the Jim Henson Foundation Workshop Grant (2018) and Production Grant (2019), as well as generous support from the Bob Jolly Charitable trust, Puppet Showplace Theater, and the Ko Festival. Since the success of Flying Lessons, Brzezinski & Schap have created several short, filmed shadow pieces including Above/Below, a short for Boston’s 48hr Stay At Home Film Project, and their new series Body Stories.
