Isabella Waldron

Director

My name is Isabella Waldron (she/her/hers). It is my mission to create theatre that revels in complications. I am interested in stories of young women, intergenerational connection, home and desire. I believe in a theatre with space for unanswered questions and our most unspeakable inner thoughts; that shows us we are messy and awful and wonderful, often all at the same time.
