DRAMATURGY
WHAT IS A DRAMATURG?
Working in theatres and playwrights' organizations, in colleges and universities, and on a project-by-project basis,
establish connections among the text, actors, and audience; offer opportunities for playwrights; generate projects and programs; and create conversations about plays in their communities.

MY PERSONAL DRAMATURG'S STATEMENT
They not only adopt this vantage point within their own artistic endeavors but also extend it outward, actively participating in their broader artistic community. Being a dramaturg means attending productions beyond their involvement to broaden our understanding and insight. The dramaturg is a professional theatergoer.
For me, the role of the dramaturg is rooted in the perspective of the audience.

As a production dramaturg, I consider myself the
or an artist able to view a work, as if for the first time, and interpret, to a creative team, what I am seeing, experiencing, and affected by.
I love fostering meaningful discussions within rehearsal rooms and providing avenues for artists to feel represented within their work. Equally as important is my role in
whether part of a company or the audience (relevant audience experience as noted to the right). As I dramaturg I am drawn to new play development; productions that marry music, movement, and storytelling; and works that push artistic boundaries by animating new diverse voices. As a theater artist, I'm committed to amplifying systematic underrepresented voices within the theater community especially those that are female, trans, and non-binary - striving to fashion a more inclusive and diverse stage.
"eyes of the audience"
ensuring theater that is engaging, accessible, and meaningful to all,
I'm driven by a deep passion for research, advocacy, education, and discovery in theater.
I firmly believe in the pivotal role of the dramaturg in shaping and enhancing the storytelling experience. I will always advocate for the dramaturgs' presence in artistic spaces.
