About.

Liz Adams is an award-winning Boston-based theatre artist and teacher, licensed to teach K-12 Theater and 5-12 English in Massachusetts.  She performed a rich mixture of contemporary plays (often singing as well as acting), classics, murder mysteries, and commedia dell'arte, always finding community with her colleagues and audiences, and searching for ways to grow as an artist.  In addition to a heavy performance schedule of traditional plays, she worked regularly with new play development, performed as a troupe member with The Murder Mystery Company New England and Pazzi Lazzi commedia dell'arte troupe, and as Gertrude the Boston Ghost with Ghosts & Gravestones Boston. She also directed plays whenever possible, and taught in the Boston Public Schools and elsewhere.

 

Her work took her to the New York International Fringe Festival, the Kennedy Center, and to theaters large and small throughout the Boston area.  She holds a master's degree in Theatre Education from Emerson College, where she trained as both an artist and an educator.  She has performed in English and Spanish with Apollinaire Theatre in Chelsea.  She's directed for Fort Point Theatre Channel at the Outside the Box Festival, MIT Shakespeare Ensemble, and MassArt Playwrights Workshop.  She holds a bachelor's degree cum laude from Harvard Extension School with a concentration in biology, and has done graduate work in neuroscience.

The Covid-19 pandemic destroyed a great deal of that work. Liz has now moved to Maui, where she works in airport security
