Playwright Resume

​

Barbara Hume is an emerging Seattle-based playwright with an extensive career as a dancer/actor and director/choreographer.  Light through the Cellar Door, featured in the August 2024 “Perspectives” series at Bainbridge Island Museum of Art (BIMA), focuses on the challenges facing women’s reproductive choice.    Red Line, presented in Theatre 33’s 2024 Summer “Pop Up” Play Reading Festival in Salem, Oregon, depicts the friendship of two young men, one White and one Black, challenged by the status quo of racism.   On the House, a comedy about online dating for seniors, was featured in PDX Playwrights’ April 2024 Ten Minute Play festival in Portland, Oregon and in the most recent Island Theatre Ten Minute Play festival at Bainbridge Performing Arts in August 2024.

​

Her most recent works are a ten minute play titled Finding Godot, an adaptation of Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot and a full length "work in progress" satirical comedy, yet to be named, on the theme of disinformation.  Stay-tuned.
