ABOUT KATE

 

 

My goal as a producer, director, and dramaturg is to create performances that contribute more questions than answers, foster discussion within communities, promote empathy, and create ripples of thought and action that extend beyond each performance itself.

​

I am Program Coordinator of the Center for Creative Technology at The Juilliard School and Artistic Producer of Noor Theatre. I am also a founding board member of the Middle Eastern and North African Theater Makers Alliance (MENATMA). Previously, I served as Interim Managing/Literary Producer of Geva Theatre and the Director of Producing and New Work at Long Wharf Theatre. I have directed and/or developed new work with The Soho Rep Writer/Director Lab, The Playwrights Realm, Premiere Stages, The Civilians’ R&D Group, New York Theatre Workshop, NYU Abu Dhabi Institute (NYC), The Amoralists, The Flea, The Shakespeare Society, The 24 Hour Plays: Nationals, and other NYC companies. I have assistant or associate directed with Ibex Theatricals/The New Vic, McCarter Theatre, Clubbed Thumb, Yale Institute for Music Theatre, and The 24 Hour Plays on Broadway. 

 

I graduated cum laude from Yale University with distinction in  Theatre Studies and Psychology.
