Namoo Chae Lee

ARTIST

Namoo is a UK-based theatre director and maker from Korea. Her work is political and formally experimental, driven by themes of cultural colonialism and liminality. With lived experience of crossing borders twice, she examines how societies govern individual identities and passionate about connecting these threads —  between personal experience and broader political structures.

She holds MFAs in writing (NYU Tisch) and Directing (Birkbeck, London) and her work has been presented in the UK, US, Japan and Korea. She is the Origins Director at Headlong Theatre and the founder of Kassna Kollektiv, an interdisciplinary performing arts collective exploring contemporary political questions through an East Asian female lens. www.hinamoo.com
