FIGHT DIRECTING
As a fight director, Madeline works to make the practice fun and accessible for both entry-level and experienced actors. She enjoys infusing humor, heart, and character within her work, creating seamless choreography that is dramaturgically accurate. With experience choreographing single sword, sword and shield, unarmed, quarterstaff, and knife, they are continually searching for ways to expand their knowledge in the art of stage combat.
Madeline is SAFD certified in sword and shield and is currently working towards certification in unarmed and rapier dagger.
