Connor Wentworth
playwright & general nuisance!
Connor Wentworth is a New York City–based playwright who creates bold, genre-bending theatre with a deep commitment to queer storytelling. Their work lives at the intersection of tenderness and disruption—stories powered by emotional complexity, biting humor, and an unflinching attention to what people will do to be loved, believed, and forgiven.
Connor's plays explore memory, family systems, desire, and the quiet violences we call care, building plays that feel intimate up close and seismic in the room.
​
A fierce believer in collaboration, Connor’s plays are designed as creative playgrounds; spaces where artists can take risks, make messes, and discover the piece together. Their plays often stretch form through unconventional structure, heightened realism, and visceral staging, inviting audiences into experiences that challenge, comfort, and confront how to be a human being.
Connor is blessed beyond belief to be alive at the same time as Lorde, Lady Gaga, and Kate Bush.
SURVIVOR superfan. ​
