JUNE 2023
Earlier this June, Linnea was performing in a staged reading of Love Interest by Lee Melillo at The Tank.
“Love Interest is a sharp, scintillating new story about three women and the men surrounding them in the new, "socially-conscious" entertainment industry, and how they navigate public image, personal sacrifice, and the ways being part of a massive superhero film franchise forces them to confront their place in the universe - and also, thirst Tweets.”

FEBRUARY 2023
Linnea is currently the associate director for My Name is Jennifer, an 18 hour overnight performance at Theaterlab this February.
“My Name Is Jennifer is a durational meditation on queer grief and ancestry. Inspired by the visual art and texts of David Wojnarowicz, the music of Arthur Russell, and an episode of MacGyver written by his AIDS-infected uncle in the 90s, Noah Crandell and team deconstruct the relationship between queerness and ephemerality in connection to the AIDS epidemic.
Celebrated visual artist, John Hanning, will also have a new work on view in TheaterLab’s gallery. Frequently exploring themes of anxiety, surveillance, paranoia, the bankrupt morality of religion, commentary of American values, the LGBTQ and AIDS movements, Hanning’s work has been shown internationally at Spritmuseum, Stockholm, Sweden; the Geffen Contemporary at MOCA, Los Angeles, CA; and The Art Gallery of Guelph, Guelph, Canada.
When you enter with a timed entry ticket, you may stay, leave, or return for the remainder of this 18 hour tour de force.”

“Through the William R. Kenan, Jr. Fellowship, emerging artists committed to arts education receive mentorship and training. This spring, the six Kenan Fellows – Ana Evans, Tramaine Gray, Jalen Hicks, Sam Sherman, Lauren Smith, and Marissa Truitt – have gathered to create a unique hybrid performance designed to probe the past and imagine the future for arts institutions. The highly collaborative new work – devised in partnership with Kate Baxter, Holly Belshaw, Thomas Booker, Devin Kessler, Jordan Robertson, Linnea Scott, Lila Weitzner, and Kayce Wilson – turns to music, dance, and puppetry to explore the contemporary history of the arts and what a more equitable and inclusive future could look like.”
