Tatiana Baccari (she/they) is a generative director, writer and producer of theater and film.

She serves as Producing Artistic Director of Experimental Bitch, developing new performance with artists/companies such as Anya Pearson, Nia O. Witherspoon, Diana Oh, HERE Arts Center, and The Bushwick Starr. Recently, Tatiana created Bitchin’ Heals, a series of radically accessible workshops and performances dedicated to uplifting disabled joy, co-presented with JACK Arts in 2023. Directing highlights include Mr. Burns: A Post Electric Play by Anne Washburn (Carnegie Mellon Thesis), LEAR by Young Jean Lee (Carnegie Mellon), Animals Out of  Paper by Rajiv Joseph (Jobsite Theater/Straz Center) and Tanya’s Lit Clit, a new musical phantasmagory about women’s chronic illness co-created by Baccari and Emma Goldman-Sherman(NY Theatre Barn).
