Hi there! I'm Natalie, a Maryland-raised, Dublin-based writer, theatre artist, and scholar. I write political plays, often about Judaism and community ethics. I love plays that have music, people flailing about in their 20s, sibling characters, and/or break the rules of realism. As an actor, I relish sinking my teeth into classical text and new work alike. I earned my BA in Theatre and Religious Studies at Northwestern University in 2021. In the academic field of religion, I study theopolitical relationships with land and contested identity building, with an emphasis on contemporary Judaism. I'm currently completing an MPhil in Contextual Theologies and Interfaith Relations at Trinity College Dublin. When not writing, acting, or researching, I'm often playing the flute, sewing my own clothes with a misguided belief that pattern instructions are merely a suggestion, or panicking that I'm about to lose my Yiddish Duolingo streak. |
