Today Elaine chats puppeteer, performer, and playwright Megan Rose Thomas. We discuss drama schools, being a disabled performer, mental health and how that is a key part of Meg’s writing. As it’s spooky season we chat all things horror as well.
Megan Rose Thomas
Megan Rose Thomas is a Huddersfield-born, Glasgow-based actor, puppeteer and occasional magician. She's currently transitioning into playwrighting, having recently graduated from the MLitt Playwriting and Dramaturgy course at the University of Glasgow. Her plays have been longlisted for the Bruntwood International Prize for Playwriting, British Theatre Challenge, and Originals Playwriting Award. Her dissertation piece, a supernatural horror play called "Unseelie", was recently workshopped with Stage to Page.
