Michelle is a playwright and theatre educator. A believer in challenging the limits of language of form, Michelle’s writing is a blend of lyricism and sharp edges, derived from the disparate pieces that make up the daily business of living. Her plays have been produced by several local companies, including Cake Theatrical Productions, Singapore Repertory Theatre, and the Esplanade. Her most recent work, The Radicalisation of Mrs Mary Lim-Rodrigues, was developed while she was Writer-in-Residence at Centre 42 and will be presented at Wild Rice later this year (2026).
Currently Michelle also teaches in the theatre faculty at the School of the Arts, and continues to pursue her interests in the intersections of critical pedagogy, arts education, and the craft of performance-making.
