Kenjiro Lee has had work performed through Pan Asian Rep, Paper Kraine Productions, Harriet Tubman Effect, and the Fled Collective. He is a graduate of the University of Chicago where he majored in Political Science (A.B. ‘20) and minored in Theater and Performance Studies. He was previously a member of the Road Theatre Company’s virtual Under Construction 3 Playwrights Group and playwright-in-residence for the Citadel of Playwrights. Kenjiro was also a finalist for the Lark’s 2021-2022 Van Lier New Voices Fellowship before the company tragically folded. He works primarily in the New York theater scene.

Drawing from his own experiences as a Korean-Japanese American and rigorous consumer of the cerebral, the absurd, the serious, and the silly, Kenjiro crafts (usually) comedic plays that confront the uncomfortable aspects of daily life with a dose of remedial chaos.
