Jo Egan Playwright

Jo Egan

Jo Egan is a playwright and theatre-maker working in Belfast and London. She is fuelled by a search for narratives that are absent from traditional theatre and story-telling. She is inspired by writers that create game-changing structures upon which they hang their stories and thematic explorations. Much of her work is influenced by one to one interviews she gathers from the previously unheard and unseen.
