Penelope Cake
Mood Disorder Not Otherwise Specified
(A Comedy About Depression)

As a performance artist, choreographer, and dancer I use original movement and text to express myself within a creative context. I primarily explore the space where life and art meet, where mind and body join, and where public and private life come together. The connective tissue between these states of being is created with deep emotion and humor.


"Of The Nymphs"
Art film by Liz Waldie in which I perform original movement in natural settings and in a photography studio. My poetry is featured on the soundtrack. The film was selected for a screening of student work from several Philadelphia Universities at the Kimmel Center in April, 2018.
