Michelle Lynch (she/her/hers) is a DC-based dramaturg and playwright. While completing her BA at the American University of Paris, and her Master of Letters in Playwriting and Dramaturgy at the University of Glasgow, she balanced her studies with work on international theatre festivals. Since moving to Washington, DC she has worked as a dramaturg with individual playwrights as well as Adventure Theatre, 4615 Theatre, The Kennedy Center, and STC. Two of Michelle’s original plays, From Cinders To Ella and Willow’s Bend, were commissioned in recent years by Adventure Theatre. Michelle is driven by a passion for collaborative and inclusive new works creation, and the DMV has been the dream environment for that process. Michelle currently works as the Artistic and Literary Associate at Folger Shakespeare Library, where she supports all production and programming processes.
