Ameera Conrad

Ameera Conrad is an international award winning writer, director, and performer, who has worked predominantly in mainstream and devised theatre since 2016. Her work focuses on decolonising the canon of theatre & amplifying the stories of marginalised groups through race, gender, & sexuality.

In her own words: “have a two-pronged approach to decolonising the canon; on one hand I create new texts through devising, on the other hand I take pre-existing texts and politically occupy them. My aesthetic is non-realistic, clean lined, & maximalist, with throbbing bass lines, & its tongue firmly in its cheek”.

​Conrad is the former Artistic Director of The Furies Co-Operative, and an alumnus of the Lincoln Centre Theater’s Directors Lab 2017. She works as associate artist at the National Youth Theatre of Great Britain, a visiting lecturer at Mountview London, and the Associate Director for the Actors Touring Company and LAMDA.
