MARIDEE SLATER
Director
Maridee Slater has an MFA in directing from Columbia University. During the 2016 election, she was a Visiting Associate Professor of Theatre in Colorado, which reignited her passion for social discourse. She's always scheming, always dreaming, and cultivating the vital impulse. Sometimes she makes with her hands (as a fabricator/carpenter/welder), sometimes she makes with her head (as a director and producer), sometimes with her body (as a choreographer and performer), and often by encouraging, prodding, and cheerleading others to realize their creative potential. Always, she makes with her heart and an unstoppable enthusiasm.
