Maria MacDonell

I am a writer , actor , and performance storyteller with over 30 years experience in mainstage theatre, small scale touring and across the creative arts. I am currently creating my own work and am keen to perform in other people's work.

Miss Lindsay's Secret, written and performed by me @misslindsayshow, has been supported by Creative Scotland and received five four star reviews in Fringe 2021. 'An outstanding and heartbreakingly beautiful play' (Jenny Gilruth, then Scottish Culture Secretary) . It is available to tour again this Summer/Autumn. During lockdown, to keep the play alive, I made a short film Miss Lindsay's Love in Lockdown. https://vimeo.com/464306273
I am co writer and performer with Jo Clifford on The Not So Ugly Duckling http://www.notsouglyduckling.com/ currently in development.

I am based in Leith and in Glenesk, Angus.
