Welcome to My Website
My name is Grace Kimball (she/her/per pronouns), and I am a doctoral candidate in Theater, Dance, and Performance Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara. My research looks at early modern English performance behaviors and religion. I also serve as the Assistant Director of Professional Development within the UCSB Graduate Division. In my free time, I do work as a director, intimacy director, and playwright.
