Meaghan McGurgan was raised in the United States and attended Columbus State University where she studied Directing under Kate Musgrove. She received her Master degree in 2008 and relocated to Hong Kong where she began teaching drama in the ESL environment. This is where the magic happened! Meaghan is passionate about making theatre and arts accessible for everyone. She believes in a classroom environment where students should be free to ask questions and feel free to explore themselves.
Meaghan was a vital part of the Hong Kong theatre community, directing plays, starting Hong Kong’s first outdoor Shakespeare festival and being the editor of Hong Kong’s number one art blog, HKELD.com. She was passionate about making sure everyone knew that Hong Kong was not a “cultural desert”. Since 2019, she has been unable to practice theatre due to the NSL law and the restrictions Hong Kong places on their artists.
Since moving to London, she hopes to find a new home where she can explore, create and tell stories again.
She is available for fullt-time, freelance and contract work.
