Welcome
Hello! I’m Catherine Blake Smith, aka the cbs network.
I am a theatremaker with a passion for producing live, one-of-a-kind performance and events in socially equitable contexts. My current adventure takes me to the University of Glasgow, where I am pursuing a Masters of Literature in Playwriting & Dramaturgy.
Before moving to Glasgow, I produced new plays with local theatre companies including Annex Theatre, Seattle’s longest-operating fringe theatre. Alongside my theatre practice, I’ve worked for nonprofit community service organizations, tech companies where I’ve supported website and branding projects, and beloved neighborhood institutions in Capitol Hill, Seattle.
Since moving to Scotland, I’ve returned to my practice of writing about theatre and performance. In my spare time, I love cycling around the city, creating new recipes, and seeing new art and performance. Subscribe to my Substack newsletter, is this emotional labor?, to read the latest.
