Playwright

Ariana Tulay (Misaligned Skies) is a senior at Marion C. Moore High School and plans to continue her education at Northern Kentucky University, double majoring in Philosophy and Political science. Ariana is an active member of the drama club and has acted in five productions. She has also been a spoken word artist for the creative writing club for three years. Ariana has used her acting and writing as a vehicle for political and social change. Ariana hopes that with her play she can continue this mission and help destroy the stigmas around unconventional relationships and mental illness. Ariana could not have created this play without the help of her director Mr. Bush, her creative writing teacher Mr. Kaufmann and the unconditional support from her Mom.
