Carys D. Coburn

Carys D. Coburn’s BÁN was shortlisted for the Susan Smith Blackburn Award, and subsequently produced by the Abbey Theatre. They were the winner of the Verity Bargate Award 2017 for Citysong - co-produced by Soho Theatre, the Abbey Theatre, and Galway International Arts Festival. Other plays include Absent The Wrong (Best Production at Dublin Fringe 2022) and HOTHOUSE (Best Production at Dublin Fringe 2023). One of the founders of MALAPROP, their work together won acclaim for its distinctive blend of nerdiness and tenderness.

Work with young people is a major strand of their practice, and their interdisciplinary practice spans opera libretti (Elsewhere, Horse Ape Bird) and queer cabaret extravaganzas (THISISPOPBABY’s WAKE).
