Director: Morgan Urbanovsky
Morgan Urbanovsky (Director) is a multidisciplinary Theatre artist and Austin native who specializes in safe, consent-based and equitable Theatre practices that protect the well-being and autonomy of all artists. Her work focuses on amplifying voices that have been suppressed or silenced and uplifting their stories. For the past five years, she has been teaching middle and high school students around the Austin area while obtaining her masters from East Texas A&M University. She is currently working toward her MFA at the University of Idaho, where her studies include feminist theatre concepts that subvert the traditional canon.
When obtaining her Bachelors at Texas A&M University – Corpus Christi, Morgan had the honor of directing the ‘Inaugural Seed Project’. This process allows one student to direct a full length, budgeted production of their choosing where she directed her first main stage project, Smokefall by Noah Haidle. In 2018, her senior capstone project was Hand to God by Robert Askins, winning her the award of Best Director and Best Capstone Project that year. In the spring of 2024, she had the privilege of making her directorial debut at the Georgetown Palace Theater with Doubt by John Patrick Shanley.
In addition to her directing credits, Morgan has served as a Stage Combat and Intimacy Coordinator since 2021. Her most recent credit under this title was for Hungry Teenage Track Stars by Annika Levken, produced by Broad Theater. She is also an active combatant with the Society of American Fight Directors. Other credits for her Stage Combat work include, The Play That Goes Wrong (VRHS Theatre), A Sherlock Holmes Christmas (The Archive Theater) and Deathtrap (The Georgetown Palace Theater).
Morgan strives to approach each project with a fresh perspective, collaborating with amazing artists to bring high quality Theatre to local stages.
