Rachel Chavkin is an American stage director, best known for directing the musical Natasha, Pierre, & The Great Comet of 1812, for which she was nominated for a Tony Award.

Career

Chavkin has a BFA from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts and an MFA from Columbia University School of the Arts (2008).[1]

She has directed and created many works for The TEAM, including award-winning and internationally touring plays, such as Roosevelvis, Mission Drift and Architecting.[2][3]

She directed Three Pianos which ran Off-Off-Broadway at the Ontological-Hysteric Theater in March 2010[4] and then at the New York Theatre Workshop in December 2010 to January 2011.[5] She won the 2010 Obie Award, Obie Special Citation for Three Pianos.[6][7]

She directed Dave Malloy's Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812, which ran Off-Broadway in 2013-2014.[8] Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812 received the

2013 Obie Award, Special Citation.[9] Under her direction, the musical opened on Broadway at the Imperial Theatre on November 14, 2016. At the 71st Tony Awards, the musical received twelve nominations, the highest number for the 2016-17 season, including a nomination for Chavkin for Best Director of a Musical.

She directed The Royale by Marco Ramirez, Off-Broadway at Lincoln Center, which opened in March 2016.[10][11] She was nominated for the 2016 Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Director of a Play for directing The Royale.[12] She received the 2016 Obie Award, Direction, for The Royale.[13]

She directed the folk opera Hadestown, written by Anais Mitchell, which opened officially at the Off-Broadway New York Theatre Workshop on May 23, 2016.[14] She is directing Anything That Gives Off Light at the Edinburgh International Festival in August 2016, in a co-production with The TEAM and The National Theatre of Scotland.[15]

In 2018, she directed Lempicka, which premiered on July 20 at the Williamstown Theater Festival.[16]

Style

In an article in American Theatre, Diep Tran noted that she has a "diverse slate of work" united with "a distinctively multisensory sensibility.... When she staged Meg Miroshnik’s The Fairytale Lives of Russian Girls at Yale Repertory Theatre, she included a live female punk band; her work with the TEAM routinely blends text, video, and pervasive sound design. 'She can squeeze a lot into a small space, and yet it feels epic and sprawling,' said Ars Nova artistic director Jason Eagan."[17]
