Sierra Rosetta

Sierra’s passion for theatre, playwriting, and research made her instantly interested dramaturgy. 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 (Wong Kids, Clean House, Frida Libre).

Sierra is the literary associate at Native Voices Theatre, the only equity theatre in the US that solely produces Native work. Her main focus is to foster an environment that values Indigenous voices and helps their stories reach broader audiences. Engaging collaboratively with playwrights, Sierra offers feedback, support, and resources for script development. Through careful curatorial work, she aims to dismantle barriers for Native stories in theatre. Sierra was trained in her literary work at the Eugene O’Neill Theater Center summer fellowship.
