Meggie Greivell

I'm a theatre director, currently based in Edinburgh. I am originally from the states, but I came to the UK for my masters in directing which I recently completed. I am interested in feminist historical work in the theatre. My favorite plays to direct are untold women's stories. I love plays that use Brechtian styles, as well as heightened texts. I have recently come to love the use of puppetry, which was used in my most recent work, PRICK, which premiered at the Edinburgh Fringe. My pronouns are she/her.
