AEA | Actor - Director

About Me

Actor and Director based in NYC who specializes in Shakespeare and New Play Development.

Originally from NC, my current home is in LIC (Queens, Y'all!) where I'm shacked up with my beloved husband, Tim, and our ever-growing collection of shot glasses, cookware, and (mostly) thriving plant life. 

​

I take lots of pictures of my food, but rarely post them for public consumption.

In such a strange year, I've had the great good fortune to collaborate with some incredible folx on developmental readings/workshops/productions for Portland Stage, The Lark, New Georges, Boomerang Theatre, and The Parsnip Ship - and in a possibly related matter, have utterly failed at keeping pace with the Shakespeare 2020 Project. 

​

...and I'm creating a Podcast/Cooking/New Media project called Pimento Cheese 'n' Biscuits.

"Sara Thigpen is one of those actors you love as soon as she steps onto the stage."
