About Cara

Hello, my name is Cara Powers! I'm a freelance film and theatre-maker based in the United States. I hold an MA in Text and Performance from a joint program between Birkbeck, University of London and the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and a certificate in comedy filmmaking from the Harold Ramis Film School (associated with the world famous improv theatre The Second City).
My theatrical interests and expertise are extremely varied: I have directed and/or written everything from traditional plays to experimental and devised theatre. When it comes to filmmaking I have directed film noir, music videos, short films, even commercials. I have written comedies, dramas, TV pilots, and everything in between.

In my spare time I enjoy knitting, dogsitting,and urban exploring.

I also offer freelance speech writing and script proofreading.
