Connor is a playwright originally from a Maine, now based in New York City. They hold a BFA in Contemporary Theatre from Boston Conservatory at Berklee, where they developed a multidisciplinary approach to performance, writing, collaboration, and new-work development.

​

Connor’s plays and musicals include THE CIRCUIT: An Immersive Silent Disco Ballet, QUEER BAIT, SANCTUARY: A New Musical, The Destination of This Train Is: A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships, Resting Place, and Blue Neighbourhood. Their work has been developed and presented through the Off-Broadway and Regionally through New York Theatre Company, New York Theater Festival, Rogue Theater Festival, Euphoria Theatre Company, The Mana Theatre Collective, and other independent stages and developmental readings across the country.

​

Their writing explores queerness, family, memory, grief, power, and the ways people construct identity in order to survive. Connor is particularly interested in nonlinear storytelling, ensemble-driven work, heightened theatricality, and plays that blur the line between commercial accessibility and formal experimentation.

​

In addition to playwriting, Connor works as a director, producer, educator, and facilitator. Across disciplines, they are drawn to work that is intimate, emotionally immediate, and unafraid to be messy, theatrical, or deeply human.
