Rosalie Roger-Lacan

About Me: Hello! I’m a French playwright and theatre director based in Bristol. I discovered that my passion lay in writing and directing while studying English literature at the University of Bristol – and I haven’t looked back since. I co-founded a female led theatre company with three peers and over the past three years, I’ve written, directed, and staged four plays across fringe theatres in Bristol, London, and Edinburgh, earning strong critical and audience acclaim. My writing tends to sit between genres, balancing the unsettling and the funny, the raw and the ridiculous. I’m fascinated by love, death, farces, and the strange mechanics of human desire – the things we long for, fear, and laugh at when no one’s looking. I write what scares me, and I’m drawn to stories that are voyeuristic, darkly comic, and uncomfortably intimate. I’m an active part of the theatre scene, constantly engaging with new work, new artists, and new ideas. I’m always eager to collaborate, experiment, and push my writing into unexpected places.
