Eli Oisin Campbell (they/them)

Eli is an MFA candidate and member of the Iowa Playwrights Workshop. After a BA in Theatre and Spanish at the same university, they interned at Theatre Goodman and studied at Steep Theatre and Chicago Dramatists. Their work has been developed at 20% Theatre, Artemisia Theatre, and the Story Theatre, and their play Pleasure Play premiered at Dreamwell Theatre (Iowa City) in 2023. Eli's plays are dark and queer, with a tendency towards dry humor. They explore themes of transition, loneliness, and carnality, often against the backdrop of history. Their play Forgottonia will be read in the Iowa New Play Festival in May, and an untitled play will premiere at Dreamwell in Fall 2024. Eli is also a portrait photographer and besotted dog parent!
