Michaela Goldhaber is a playwright and theater director. Her plays have had staged readings with Playwrights Foundation, Central Works Writers Workshop, and Symmetry Theater. She has directed locally for Boxcar Theatre, the Olympians Festival, and the San Francisco Playwrights’ Center. For eight years she ran Flying Fig Theater in New York, whose mission was to tell women’s stories through commissioning new plays and rediscovering plays from the past. Currently, she is working with Wry Crips Disabled Women’s Theater to create a new ensemble play, a sci-fi comedy. Her contribution to Godless Perverts dates back to her college years, when, out of a tremendous curiosity to find out what the fuck all these religions that were tearing the world apart were actually about, she double majored in Religious Studies along with Theater.
