Angela Gyurko
Angela graduated from Columbia University in 1990 (this is relevant to her plays), and like any good Tool of the Patriarchy (also relevant), her love of dance and choreography gave way to a more responsible career path, including corporate consulting and teaching college. In February 2019, she completed her MFA in creative writing from Goddard College. While she’d planned to write novels, plays kept waking her in the middle of the night demanding that she write them. (For this, she blames Sara Rose for insisting that Angela come out of retirement to choreograph the musicals at Sara’s junior high.) Earlier drafts of her first full-length play, A Tale of Two won staged readings in blind contests in Seattle (2020) and Salem, Oregon (2023). Her second full-length play, Proper, was a semi-finalist at the Gary Marshall Theater’s Festival of New Works in 2021 and in 2022, it made the top twelve for the Dayton Playhouse’s FutureFest. Three of her one-act plays have been staged: Triangles in 2018, Adults in 2020, and For You, Anything in 2023. In addition, a zoom adaptation of Adults was staged by Boston Conservatory Students in 2021.
