Smyra Yawn (she/her) is on a mission to shine a light on the progressive and thoughtful work of women and genderqueer artists in Chicago Theatre.

She has lived in Chicago and worked in Arts Management since 2011.  As a stage manager, she specialized in processes for new and experimental works.  Now she makes sure the money doesn’t run out.
