Hello! / ¡Holi!

Originally from South Carolina, Lillian makes theater in New York, the Carolinas and Peru and beyond. Her artistic perspective is shaped by rural roots and global travels, which inspire a passion for dynamic, elemental performance that stokes the imagination and asks big questions. Her work has been seen in and outside of traditional theater spaces at the BorderLight Festival, HERE Art Center, Dixon Place, Governor’s Island, Grafton Reintegration Center, Burning Coal Theatre, SETC, Asheville Fringe Festival, the Darlington GOPO, as well as La Alianza Francesa and El Galpón (Peru). She has assisted for directors Pálína Jónsdóttir and Shana Cooper, and completed SDCF Choreography Observerships with Steven Hoggett and Andy Blankenbuehler. She trained with Double Edge Theatre and earned her BA in Performance Studies at Oberlin College. In 2019, Julie Taymor sent her to Latin America to study theater, which opened the door to ongoing international research and collaboration.
