Charlette is a Theatre Artist born and raised in the Philippines, currently based in Chicago, Illinois. Her deepest dreams of pursuing a sustainable career in theatre come alongside her dreams to provide a landscape of opportunities, to continuously advocate for access and visibility for women of color, especially to Filipinos. To live and to leave. To live this mission, and to leave a trail for anyone who wishes to pursue the same path she is trying to conquer. To celebrate the human experience through the profound work of art that is Theatre.

Colonized Imagination is a devised theatre work Directed and performed by Steph Reyes for the Third Mask Festival.
From January to April 2021, we collaborated and explored the layers surrounding decolonizing a creative's imagination. A deconstruction of the eternal and inadvertent effect on the everyday. An investigation of the nuanced relationship between the colonizer and the colonized.

Supervised and arranged logistics for the out-of-town pictorial/photoshoot. Overlooked set and property construction. Ran the exceedingly tedious dress and tech rehearsals. Called the show and created the production book.
