Kate Fitzgerald recently graduated Summa Cum Laude from Boston Conservatory with a BFA in Musical Theatre, a Specialization in Playwriting and Dramaturgy, as well as a Minor in Gender Studies from Berklee College of Music. 

 

Kate has worked at various regional theaters, appeared in multiple short films, and recorded commercial voice over. Some of her favorite theatrical roles include: Abigail Williams in The Crucible, Cunegonde in Candide, and Amber Von Tussel in Hairspray!. Kate is an Anthony Quinn Foundation Scholarship Recipient, and a YoungArts Winner (Theater 2019 and Writing 2019). 

 

Outside of theater, Kate enjoys spending time with her family and their beloved dog, Oliver (named after a certain Dickensian orphan, since he’s always asking for more). Kate fills much of her free time with reading and writing, and has worked as a bookseller throughout high school and college. Here are some of her favorite recent reads: Wordslut by Amanda Montell, Bunny by Mona Awad and Educated by Tara Westover. Kate has received recognition from Princeton University, Trinity Repertory Company, and YoungArts for her writing, receiving awards for multiple one act plays she has authored. She continues to journal and write creatively when inspiration strikes. 

 

Kate is committed to growing artistically and personally, and is excited to incorporate her identity as a queer woman along with her passion for creation into her future career.
