​​ABOUT

ACTOR, DRAMATURG, & THEATRICAL FREELANCER

 <----------- As you can tell, I've always loved overalls.

Hi there, and welcome! I'm Ally. I'm a multi-hyphenate introvert with a deep love for contemporary theatre, new play development, and archives currently splitting time between Atlanta and Dallas-Fort Worth.

I believe there's a place for introverts in the arts.

I've been a self-professed interdisciplinary aficionado for as long as I can remember. I find myself enamored with approaching relationships from a place of abundance instead of competition and find learning about the human experience and how to be in citizenship across differences through theatre always draws my heart.

​I'm passionate about stories with space for melancholy and the bittersweet, movement in theatre, environmental science, plays with music, folk musicals, literary adaptations, femme-centric stories, and ensemble work.
 ​I also think being a swing is the coolest job. 

​Those are the specifics, but I also have a wide and varied interest in all theatrical works and promise to approach your work with
​an open heart and curious mind.

When not reading a play or in a rehearsal space, you can find me antique shopping, reading with a large cup of tea (this one's Earl Grey---->), quietly competitive at a board game night, or enjoying butterscotch chocolate chip cookies.

REVIEWS/FEEDBACK:

"Ally was fantastic to work with and was such a champion of my work. I always felt like she had my best interest in mind and asked me the best questions to help get my play and my writing to a better place. I feel like I walked away from this experience with a fuller, more realized play and a better writer." - Parker Davis Gray, playwright
