Jenn Bokoch (she/her) is a playwright, performer, educator, administrator, and storyteller. She has devoted her career to creating interview-based theater featuring underrepresented voices and utilizing various mediums such as puppetry, audio recordings, movement, and music. Her goal is to place real words, experiences, and stories onstage; both so that audiences can reflect upon them, and so that real people can see and hear themselves in a script. She is proud to hold an MA in Educational Theatre from New York University, and draws from this experience to elevate voices from the community in her theatre praxis.
Jenn's plays have been performed in New York and Los Angeles, with the support of organizations such as Dixon Place, The Center at West Park, Verbatim Performance Lab, Brooklyn Arts Exchange, and The Network of Ensemble Theaters, among others. She currently works as an Arts Partnership Manager at Marquis Studios in Brooklyn, and as a practicing full-spectrum Doula. As a performer, Jenn has worked as an actor onstage and in VO, voicing campaigns for Jergens, SmileCrafters, DSW, and numerous other commercials, PSAs, and audiobooks. She has also been a full-suit puppeteer for many years, including working as an original puppeteer for The Watcher from Sony Playstation’s Horizon Zero Dawn, and at the La Brea Tar Pits where she operated a life-sized Saber-Toothed Cat puppet built by the Jim Henson Creature Shop. Jenn is a former Parent Artist Space Grantee at BAX in Brooklyn; and has also received artist residencies at Subcircle, Millay Arts, The Omega Women’s Leadership Center, and more. Her greatest ongoing gig is that of being a Mom to her son Lawrence Matteo, age 6.
