Devon Williamson

Devon Williamson is a New Zealand playwright whose plays are loved by producers, actors and audiences alike. Producers love the plays because they are easy to sell - great titles, hilarious comedy, characters and situations that audiences identify with. Actors love the plays because they are great fun to act with bold and interesting characters, intense conflict, great dialogue and enthusiastic audience response. Audiences love the plays because they have a great night out, seeing hilarious comedy, insightful drama, and stories that keeps an audience on the edge of its seat (when they are not rolling in the aisles!).

Devon has a wide experience in theatre and works not only as a playwright but also as a director, actor, producer and theatre tutor. This combined experience enhances each area of his work. He has been working in the theatre and related industry fulltime since 1990.

He has written 12 plays mostly full length ‘laugh out loud’ comedies.

Devon is employed by the Detour Theatre Trust to direct, write and tutor theatre, and is well respected in the theatre community. Detour Theatre has commissioned a number of his plays. Devon has directed over 20 plays and is a regular director for Detour Theatre and Absolute Theatre. He is married with two children.
