Kimberly Pritchard’s writing incorporates techniques from various methods of image-making:

visual arts, film, music and sound. Her sense of storytelling has been strongly conditioned by

the literary tradition of magical realism, the worlds of her plays often hovering between a common

reality and one of miracles. Nearly all of her plays empower female characters by resurrecting

and redefining images from cultural histories that have traditionally rendered women weak.
