Ruth D’Silva
Writer | 2023 Bursary
Pronouns: she/her
Bursary Supported by Nicole Kidman
“The MCG Futures bursary will help me develop a play that tells the tale of the colonised rather than the coloniser revisiting an old classic. I also receive the guidance and mentorship of an MCG team committed to encouraging unheard voices. Priceless at this stage of my career as an emerging writer. I am so happy.”
The bursary will allow Ruth to champion global majority voices by writing a radical theatre adaptation of a British classic set in colonised India.
