Georgie Botham
Director Dramaturg Writer(she/her) Hi! I'm a director, writer, and dramaturg who's a bit obsessed with Gig Theatre and sings Musical Theatre songs on repeat.
I love verbatim and lip-sync work and got my start in studio plays with small casts but have also worked with companies of 80! Projects I'm currently working on are looking at the intersection of memory and identity as well as what justice looks like when an event is so public.
