Hear From Our New Artistic Director    


"Inis Nua is an important, unique company in our theater landscape, not only producing the stories of the British Isles and Ireland, but also bringing unique performance styles to Philadelphia audiences. I have been a fan from the very beginning. The message I want to share with our audience is: this will remain the company you love, and in the next few years we're going to go on some new adventures together."

-KC MacMillan

 

About KC

KC is a noted local director and arts leader. Over her career, she has directed more than 50 productions both in Philadelphia, off-Broadway, and around the country. She is the longtime Artistic Director of Tiny Dynamite and will continue in that role.

KC begins her journey with Inis Nua just as our forthcoming season kicks off with the Pop-up Play in a Pub, the Philadelphia premiere of 10 Dates with Mad Mary by Yasmine Akram; KC will direct. She succeeds interim Artistic Director Charlotte Northeast and our founder Tom Reing, who in June 2022 retired from the role of Artistic Director due to medical reasons.

KC recently sat down with Jane M. Von Bergen from the Philadelphia Inquirer to talk about stepping into the role of Artistic Director, what she's looking forward to in our coming season, and her excitement for our Pop-Up Play starting in just two weeks!
