Melanie Gilligan

Writing provides the backbone for all of Melanie Gilligan’s work. In her performances and videos actors deliver scripts that are by turns literary, evocative, humorous and political. These works blend narrative, dramatic and informative modes in order to communicate complex histories and ideas. During her residency Gilligan will develop a script and rehearse with an actor, culminating in a final video.
