Caitlin Baker
Malcolm | Witch | Murderer | Messenger
Caitlin Baker is a director, dramaturg, and actor living and working on Ngunnawal/Ngambri land. With a focus on feminist narratives, and reinvented classics, her work seeks to interrogate the intersections of politics, sex, and adaptation in contemporary Australia. Her recent directorial credits include Joanna Richard’s You Can’t Tell Anyone, Sophie McIntosh’s macbitches, William Shakespeare’s The Tempest, Karen Vickery’s new translation of Chekhov’s Seagull, and Nigel William’s Lord of the Flies (co-directed with Lachlan Houen). In 2025 she will be directing Joanna Richard’s Lifeboat, as well as Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. As a dramaturg, Caitlin most recently worked on You Can’t Tell Anyone’s development, as well as Julian Lanarch’s AWGIE nominated How to Vote. Her performance history encompasses companies such as Canberra Youth Theatre, Canberra Rep, Echo Theatre, and ACT Hub. Most recently she performed as Helena in Echo Theatre's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Caitlin is thrilled to be making her Lakespeare debut (and a witchy one to boot).
