ABOUT KATIE

Katie is an interdisciplinary director based in Ireland, originally from Minneapolis, Minnesota. Her work celebrates theatricality, examines the materiality and effects of borders and confines, and prioritises a thorough probing of the text. She fuses her love of analysing language with detailed vocal and physical work, as she firmly believes that “actors write with their bodies”.
She holds a BFA (Hons) in Musical Theatre from The Boston Conservatory (concentrations in Directing, Acting, Songwriting) and an MFA (Distinction) in Directing from The Lir National Academy of Dramatic Art.
Katie was the 2022 recipient of the Marie Mullen Bursary with Druid Theatre. She was selected as a studio director with the Irish National Opera and worked with the company throughout their 22-23 season.
Katie is represented by Holly Carey with Sovran Carey Agency.
