Kaitlyn Kelly

Actor Theatremaker Theatre Director Playwright

I'm a Canadian multi-disciplinary artist who is passionate about developing new work with like-minded artists. I have recently moved to London from Paris where I was the host of The Spoken Word Scratch Night; a zany theatrical cabaret that featured anything from play adaptations; Broadway song and dance numbers; and stand-up, while allowing other performers to share their work.
I love using comedy, song, and dance as a vehicle for feminist and political commentary. I thrive in collaborative environments. I prefer to show people my work than tell them about it.
