Sierra Rosetta

Sierra’s passion for theatre, playwriting, and research made her creatively inclined to dramaturgy and literary work. As both a new-play and production dramaturg, Sierra seeks to support a play through meticulous research, fostering curiosity, and being the play’s biggest cheerleader. She has worked professionally and academically with Goodman Theatre in Chicago, IL (Inherit the Wind), Native Voices in Los Angeles (Short Play Festival), and at Northwestern University in Illinois (Clean House, Frida Libre). She is currently the literary associate at Native Voices Theater.

Please send Sierra an email (linked below) to set up a dramaturgy consultation for your play.

As a playwright, Sierra believes that no work is non-autobiographical. We write what we know, and we observe the world and reflect things onto the page as a way to make sense of it. A brave storyteller, Sierra doesn’t shy away from any subject matter, writing about topics such as racism, infertility, generational trauma, and violence against Indigenous people and women. Her plays have been presented at Yale Indigenous Performing Arts Program (From the Old Wood Forest), Northwestern College (The Things That We Know), and won first place at Marshalltown Playwriting Competition (The Things That We Know).

Sierra began acting at the age of 4, and has been a passionate learner and participant ever since. She has received training in Linklater, Chekhov, Laban, Shakespeare, and Alexander. Sierra has brought several complex characters to life onstage in both new and established work. She has most recently performed at Northwestern University, Yale Indigenous Performing Arts Program, Commonwealth Shakespeare Company, and Northwestern College.
