Kisapmata

Born and raised in the Philippines, Bianca Miranda is a fat, queer Filipino theatre artist who is grateful to be living and working in Moh'kins'tsis, Treaty 7 Territory (Calgary, Alberta). She is Producer at Downstage, "theatre that creates conversation around current issues." As a theatre-maker and playwright, their works most often start from a personal place and examine the intersections of her identities, born out of the necessity to tell stories of her communities that are under-represented on stage. She is the writer of Kisapmata (Chromatic Theatre and Lunchbox Theatre) and co-writer and performer of The F Word (Downstage, presented by Alberta Theatre Projects) with Keshia Cheesman. They believe in the transformative power of storytelling.
