ALY KANTOR is a playwright and educator based on LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK. Above all, she is a storyteller, always seeking an opportunity to collaborate with creatives and create new and exciting work in a variety of mediums.
A lover of the art form of theatre in particular, ALY prides herself on having done just about every job in the theatre, from house management to scenic design. The process is her favorite part - opening night is just the icing on the cake!
ALY's original work tends to focus on women's stories, and she delights in creating the kinds of roles she herself would want to play. A self-professed lifelong nerd, she takes particular joy in creating Sci-Fi, speculative, and fantastic stories for the stage. She is also the author of devised scripts for children, creating roles that allow each of her students to shine so that no child's first theatre experience puts them in the back row of the ensemble.
Telling stories has been ALY's lifelong pursuit.
