Kaite O'Reilly

    Táto oceňovaná autorka skúma hranice medzi poéziou, drámou a prózou. Jej tvorba sa často vyznačuje inovatívnymi prístupmi a site-specific inscenáciami, ktoré spochybňujú tradičné divadelné formy. Prostredníctvom svojich textov sa ponára do podstaty kreativity a tvorivého procesu. Jej prvý román je v súčasnosti vo fáze dokončovania, čím rozširuje svoj už taký rozmanitý literárny záber.
