Kate Purdum

is a theatre-maker and writer working at the intersection of performance and its criticism, passionate about the imaginative possibilities contained within both rigorous critical scholarship and tactile, experimental forms.

She moonlights alternately as a dramaturg, stage manager, curator, and zine maker. You can find her writing in HowlRound & Theatre and Performance Design Journal.

“A bossy little person.”
