Giada Prestinari

playwright-to-be dramaturg assistant director

My name is Giada (she/her), and I consider myself a playwright-to-be. I moved to London after my mentor told me: “As a writer and a woman, Italy is not the right place for you." Over the past two years, I got the chance to explore what theatre looks like over here. I am now ready to give my contribution.
