Show Notes

"Madison Mondeaux is known in the Portland theatre scene as an adept stage manager. What is less known about her is that she is also a playwright and novelist armed with lush, effortless prose and a taste for the gothic ghosts and the fantastical. And bees." -Bobby Bermea

Madison Mondeaux
(she/her) was born and raised in Oregon. She grew up telling and writing stories, and graduated cum laude from Knox College with a BA in Creative Writing in 2015. In addition to playwriting and directing, Madison works as a stage manager. Currently, Madison runs a weekly "quarantined writer's circle", and is working on her novel, a few short stories, and the script for the New School for the Arts and Academics' 2021 school play in Tempe, Arizona.
