Alex is a theater writer, who didn’t grow up a “theater-kid” and fell into this profession by accident. Whilst working for Vogue on their podcast she met some of the editors on the culture team who asked her to cover a one-woman show at the Cafe Carlyle (“not a typical place I go to see theater” she hastens to add). A big fan of comedy, Alex is most excited about the “intersection of the theatrical solo show, storytelling, stand-up, clowning, and whatever other multi-hyphenate background these performers are bringing to the stage.”

She always has a great conversation “with someone in the line for the upstairs bathroom” at her beloved Lucille Lortel Theater in the West Village. En route she usually “grabs some onigiri from Ten Ichi Mart,” and if it’s midtown she’s: “usually running late, overwhelmed, and desperately inhaling a slice of pizza from Carve Cafe & Pizza that I have covered in red pepper flakes.”
