Bryony Lavery

Bryony Lavery is a modern British playwright. Her most succesful play to date is the heavy-handed FROZEN and it has won her various awards for its ingenuity. Bryony Lavery says she was fed up with playing poor parts in plays, such as the left arm of a sofa, and decided to write better parts in plays for women.
