Meet Stefanie Reynolds, one of the three artists selected for the Creative Incubator programme for 2026/27.
Stefanie is a mixed heritage, working class, neurodivergent, screenwriter and playwright from Manchester. She was part of the Offie Award-winning series The Waves with her audio drama Baby Mama, produced by Tamasha Theatre/Holy Mountain Productions (2022).
In autumn 2024, Stefanie’s debut play Danesha (produced by Box of Tricks), had a Northern tour opening at the Lowry.
In 2026 Stefanie wrote an adaptation of A Dolls House for Almedia’s Young Company. Stefanie also wrote and performed in her comedy short film 24 Hours to Guarantor, funded by the BFI.
Fiercely passionate, often unhinged, Stefanie champions and empowers her community through representation in her diverse stories.
Additionally, Stefanie is an anti-racist educator delivering anti racism workshops to schools and workplaces across the North West. Due to the nature of her work, Stefanie has her finger on the pulse of current, topical events, working across communities in various locations, all of which inform her writing and characters.
