Hi! I’m Regan Moro— a playwright and actor originally from the North Country of upstate New York, now based in Brooklyn. Thanks for stopping by!
I received my BFA from the University of Michigan, spent a year as an apprentice at Actors Theatre of Louisville, and am a second year fellow in the Lila Acheson Wallace American Playwrights Program at The Juilliard School. Otherwise, I’m the middle of three sisters, the funny gay aunt to four little boys, and make a mean bowl of pasta.
My plays–burn for You, Tremolo, and Nazi Mind–have been developed with Ojai Playwrights Conference, the New York State Council on the Arts, Fault Line Theatre’s Irons in the Fire, Pride Plays in association with MCC and Rattlestick, Great Plains Theatre Conference, and Huron Station Playhouse in Los Angeles. They’ve been Finalists for the O’Neill National Playwrights Conference (3x!), the Relentless Award, the Terrance McNally New Works Incubator, the Princess Grace Award, and Theatre 503’s International Playwriting Award, and have also been nominated for the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, the Weissberger New Play Award, and the Ollie New Play Award from the Bret Adams and Paul Reisch Foundation. I completed a residency at Millay Arts, am a June 2027 resident at the cell, and am a 2026-2033 Resident Playwright at New Dramatists. I am currently under commission from Manhattan Theatre Club, the Lucille Lortel Theater, and Audible Theater, and have multiple projects in development with my pals Rachel Chavkin, Shayok Misha Chowdhury, and Danya Taymor.Here’s a link to my New Play Exchange!
As an actor, you might have seen me in the third season of HBO’s Succession. If you skipped the third episode, watch that now and come back! Or you can watch my scene with Jeremy Strong here.
Done? Awesome. I’ve also acted in and developed plays at Actors Theater of Louisville, The Public Theater, Playwrights Horizons, La Jolla Playhouse, Ojai Playwrights Conference, Cleveland Playhouse, Geva Theatre Center, Syracuse Stage, New Georges, and more— here’s my resume.
Here’s some things I love: peonies, buffalo wings, Anne Carson, ice cream, swimming, salt and vinegar chips, the movie Tár, and a good button down shirt. Here’s some things I don’t love: mushrooms, cynics, oatmeal, the pressure to make plays 90 minutes/ no intermission/unit set, and rodents.
If you want me to be in your play or read one of mine, here’s how you can contact me.
Okay, bye!
