ABOUT THE PLAYWRIGHT
C. “Meaks” Meaker (they/them) is a playwright, essayist, and teacher whose work often explores queerness, monstrosity, and the end of the world.
Their plays have been performed and developed across the United States, including the Kennedy Center, Seattle Repertory Theatre, San Francisco Playhouse, Annex Theatre (Seattle), Hub Theater (D.C.), Fat Theater Project (Chicago), and About Face (Chicago).
They are a Stranger Award Genius Nominee (That’swhatshesaid), and Gregory Award Outstanding New Play Nominee (The Lost Girls).Their play That’swhatshesaid garnered international attention for using the female dialogue and stage directions of the most-produced plays in America (reported by Theatre Communications Group in American Theatre Magazine) as its inspiration and source material. It’s still staged nationally and internationally today with writers adding their own contributions to the material.
They are a former Jerome Fellow at the Playwrights’ Center, an alumna of Seattle Repertory Theatre’s Writers Group, and former Walter E. Dakin Fellow at Sewanee Writers’ Conference. They’re a two-year finalist for the Dramatist Guild National Fellows program and a recent finalist for the Jerome Hill Theater Arts Fellow. Their essay “S(wallow)” won the Editor’s Prize at Porter House Review and they’re a 2024 Lambda Literary Fellow in creative nonfiction.
They received an MFA in Playwriting from University of Iowa’s Playwrights Workshop.
