Co-founded by Olivia Haley Young and Emma Davidov, The Aurelinas Collective stands as a visionary platform committed to amplifying a diverse array of artists, with a specific focus on spotlighting women of color. This innovative collective encompasses two distinct sister companies:

The Aurelians Collective
The Aurelians Collective is dedicated to uplifting traditionally unrepresented artists, particularly women of color. Our collective provides a vital space for artists to shine, offering performance opportunities through initiatives like our monthly salon series. We actively support artists by providing industry education, forging connections, and collaborating directly with them to bring their projects to life. Rooted in empowerment, we strive to create a community where artists not only showcase their work but also receive the necessary support to produce it with confidence and creativity.

Current Projects
"Duality"
Off-Broadway
Actor, Associate producer

Face to Face Films will complete their Memory Trilogy, which started last year with "The Girl with the Red Hair," and continues this year with "Shadows," which opens December 1, 2023 at ART / NY Theaters, with the world premiere of "Duality," written by Anthony M. Laura, in December 2024.
Duality focuses on Camilla, who after experiencing the loss of the love of her life in her youth, connects with someone she believes is the soul of her lost love. The play tells the stories of past lives and how we navigate trauma when focusing on love.
"Soup"
Short Film
Actor, Executive producer

A dark comedy of delicious proportions (key word being portions), "Soup" centers on a sordid supper for three where the anti-heroine Sofia (Olivia Haley Young) leaves it all out on the table. Sofia, the victim of a heinous crime grapples with her abuser's Stockholm-syndrome ridden wife, Amber (Emma Davidov) and apologist mother (Mary Haley Young). This short film, written by Kingmond Young and directed by San Fransisco-based rising director Athyn Ritter,
deals with themes of womanhood, abuse, grooming, and the cost of being consumed by our pasts. The Aurelians' inaugural film, "Soup" is a stomach-turning, pearl clutching, red-wine and revenge fueled affair. This manic journey can only be accurately described as "the same way you imagine Nicole Kidman felt in that photo where she screams in glee after divorcing Tom Cruise". We suggest viewing on an empty stomach.
The Salon Series
Executive producer

The Salon Series is an immersive artistic nightlife experience featuring an evolving lineup of up-and-coming darlings of the art world and new voices featuring The Aurelians Collective resident artists. Iterations include 2023's sold-out The Fountain of Youth and the upcoming Celestial Bodies. Lineups include theatre, original music, stunning installations, and poetry, culminating in a vibrant fête where artists and industry reps find a unique opportunity to connect.

In Development
A Midsummer Night's Dream
Stage Production
This fantastical and transportive rendition combines inventive design and direction, reminiscent of old-Hollywood grandeur and traditional Shakespearean drama-- the dreamlike immersive production marries the timeless allure of Shakespeare and the vibrant creativity of emerging female voices featuring a sumptuous set, original music, and modern ballet.
A Matter of Days
Scripted, limited series
An exploration of the consequences that arise from humanity's toying with the welfare of the planet. It is also a love story, because what else could make the Earth worth saving? In the last remaining days of a hospitable Earth where, Vivian, a cynical young scientist falls for Mason, a soulful street musician who reignites her hope and sparks her on a journey to rescue the planet.
A Muse of My Own
Short Film
By Regan Lavin is a bona fide “good for her” film, acting as an homage to female rage and artistry. After Lennon, a young artist cloyed by gendered emotional exploitation in the art world, is countlessly betrayed, she takes it upon herself to give male artists a taste of their own medicine, using them for her own artistic purposes.
