INTIMACY DIRECTOR
Trained through Intimacy Directors International and by IDC's Jessica Steinrock, Olivia Buntaine choreographs unconventional and creative intimacy scenes through a pedagogical lens of intersectionality, trauma-informed care and the investigation of power and privilege. She is especially skilled at navigating scenes of intimate violence, sex and power, slapstick humor meets sex, and fantastical hyper-stylized moments of intimacy.

"One of the key scenes, where Frank seduces Brad and Janet separately behind a lit curtain, was well done and pretty risqué — and therefore hilarious. (This is definitely an R-rated kinda thing.)"
