| Moira Lael MacDonald is a New York-based
theater professional, born and raised in Sitka, Alaska.
As an actress she has garnered critical acclaim in roles such
as Honey in Brian Dykstra's HIDING BEHIND COMETS and Deidre
in Rona Munro's BOLD GIRLS, both at 29th St Rep. She is also
a member of Collision Theory, a text/movement ensemble that
navigates the hybrid margins of dance and theater. First seen
in their production of Sex/Work by Artistic Director David Mogentale
in 1995, she's trod and run the boards at 29th St ever since.
Behind the scenes MacDonald is a skilled technician creating
lighting, sets and props at such New York venues such as The
Ensemble Studio Theater, The HERE Arts Center, Primary Stages,
CBGB's and Plaid and Rothko. As a writer, MacDonald has composed
short fiction, poetry and performance pieces with the writer/performer/film/theater
collective Hip Replacement, and currently has a piece of short
fiction entitled Swan Lake published online at www.bigtoepress.com.
A regular with The Losers Lounge, Moira performs onstage as
a singer and behind the scenes as lighting and set designer.
Most recently, she acted in John Cameron Mitchell's new film
Shortbus. Being a big fan of all things down, dirty and downtown,
29th St is about as far north as she goes.
