Author: Leonardo Gonzalez Dominguez

Leonardo Gonzalez Dominguez is a Queer Mexican-Indigenous writer & performer. They originate from Guanajuato, Mexico, and Greenville, South Carolina, where the former birthed them and the latter shaped them. An undocumented upbringing in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains continues to influence their work on the deconstruction & reconstruction of space, time, and progress as they search for possible utopias in the stillness of today. They have been developed & workshopped by New York Theatre Workshop, PEN America, National Queer Theater, IATI Theater, & The Workshop Theater. They have been a finalist for the Dramatist Guild Foundation’s DGF Fellowship, a semi-finalist for Breaking & Entering’s 2023/2024 season, and shortlisted for NYTW’s 2050 fellowship. Their prose “I was going to write a play...” was published by PEN American in their 2022 anthology of migrant writers, DREAMING OUT LOUD. Leonardo is a graduate of the Rita and Burton Goldberg Department of Dramatic Writing at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts.
