Abigail is a playwright, director, actress, and puppeteer whose stories laugh, dance, cry, and draw blood.

As a playwright, Abigail utilizes horror and comedy as parallel methods of catharsis; when she hears an audience gasp in fear or burst out laughing, she knows that her mission is complete.

Abigail makes art that investigates the body and all of its horrors, Appalachian and Southern folklore (she grew up in both South Carolina and Pennsylvania), and queer desire.

Her work is often multidisciplinary in nature, drawing on her love of dance and 14 years of experience playing the euphonium, French horn, and other brass instruments in both classical orchestras and jazz bands.
