Sage Molasky

SAGE MOLASKY is a playwright and farmworker born and raised in Nevada, currently based in South Brooklyn and tending to a little garden there. She first wanted to become a playwright while developing her play Foraging under the mentorship of Caridad Svich and Kristoffer Diaz at the Gallatin Theatre Lab, which sought to stage a set of short performances about young women in various site specific ecosystems- examining how their stories of struggle and triumph mirrored the natural world. Sage has worked with the NYC Department of Environmental Protection, designing their Rain Garden Stewardship Curriculum, implementing over 1,000 rain gardens throughout the five boroughs of Manhattan; and managed crews of farmers on various regenerative agricultural non profits throughout the Hudson Valley. Sage particularly enjoys the bawdy, the profane, the joyful and the tender. In the very same way she has worked in agriculture- an industry which insists on radical attention, where she has learned from farmers who are keepers of death and sowers of life, inventing better and more sustainable systems- so too does Sage hope to write plays.
