Miranda Michalowski

Miranda Michalowski (she/her) is a multidisciplinary writer and performer living on unceded Gadigal land. She is passionate about telling queer and female-driven stories with a healthy dose of both humour and heart.

Miranda graduated with Honours in Theatre and Performance Studies from UNSW in 2022, having completed her thesis on female coming-of-age representations in contemporary theatre.

In 2021, she was selected as one of 20 young writers from across Australia for the prestigious ATYP National Studio. Her coming-of-age play, Young Bodies/Somebody’s, debuted at Flight Path Theatre in 2022 and is published by Playlab Digitals. Her second play, Saturday Girls, was shortlisted for the 2022 Rodney Seaborn Playwright’s Award, long-listed for the 2023 Griffin Award, and debuted at Belvoir Downstairs in August 2023.

Miranda is a member of ATYP’s 2024 Fresh Ink cohort. She is currently developing a dark comedy monologue about a funeral crasher, Macaroni and Dead Things, and a magical realist play about pregnancy, The Kid.
