About the Playwright
Kenjiro Lee (he/him) is a Korean-Japanese American playwright, puppeteer, director and occasional performer. He is a graduate of the University of Chicago (A.B. ’20) where he majored in Political Science and minored in Theater and Performance Studies, and is an alum of the Powerhouse Theater Training Program and the National Theater Institute. His play MOMENTS: A Guide to Casual Living ft. Jin and Julie was produced by Paper Kraine Productions in October 2021. Kenjiro performed his own virtual play PRIMAL (a monologue for our times) as part of the Beyond Pomp and Circumstance initiative at the Smart Museum of Art in Chicago. He was previously playwright-in-residence for the Citadel of Playwrights, where he developed his plays Ninja Tea and Seoul City Sue, and was a participant in The 24 Hour Plays: Nationals in July 2021. Kenjiro is most interested in using theater to examine the absurdities of everyday life, and explore what art can say to its audience without the limitations of a fourth wall. He was born and raised in New Jersey, but is primarily based in New York. kenjirolee.com | @kenjiromakestheater on Instagram
