Debra dramaturged and directed “An Evening of Solo Plays” at the Elephant Theatre in Hollywood.

Debra taught a series of playwriting classes for students at Manuel Arts School in South Central as part of the USC School of Theatre “Building Bridges” project hosted by fellow faculty member Anita Dashiel Sparks. Debra volunteered her playwriting guidance to high school students who had behavior and learning difficulties and were at risk of dropping out. The project was based on the students finding parallels with their own character and that of the ancient Greek Deities.
