About Erin

I am a multi-faceted theater maker—director, dramaturg, adaptor/translator, coach/teacher, producer and arts consultant

My proudest moment was founding the award-winning all-female Shakespeare company Woman’s Will in 1998. In twelve seasons there, my company members and I radically redefined how Bay Area theaters employed women on stage and off and helped lead a movement toward parity which continues today.

From ancient texts to world premieres, complex texts to movement pieces, I create vital, visceral, full-spectrum theater that provokes and guides the conversations our country needs to have. 

Theater is the single best medium to gather community together to see itself, analyze itself, and dream its best self into being. Let's tell our biggest, boldest stories together.
