Ellie Heyman is a director of theatre and film.
Her work begins with an instinct for what a story is really about — the thing underneath the thing — and builds outward into productions that are visually lush, rhythmically precise, and felt in your bones.
She has directed work featuring Glenn Close, Patti LuPone, A$AP Rocky, John Cameron Mitchell, Tim Robbins, and Jesse Malin, in venues from Off-Broadway to a cruise-ship spectacle performed across four ships worldwide.
