Christian St. Croix grew up in Sacramento, where he threw his first punch and kissed his first boy. He’s now in San Diego, chasing the pull of Los Angeles. A queer, Black playwright, he crafts lo-fi slice-of-life stories, salted with strange wonders. His breakout play Monsters of the American Cinema has traveled the country, earning praise from the Los Angeles Times for its “exhilarating freedom” and “capacious empathy.” Along the way, he’s earned the Dominic Orlando and Carlo Annoni International playwriting awards, with work honored by the O’Neill, the Craig Noel Awards, and the San Diego Fringe. His other plays roam across genres and landscapes: We Are the Forgotten Beasts, a modern Western set at a Mojave motel; ZACH, a sun-soaked ’90s comedy hailed by The Seattle Times for its “multiple layers”; and We Lovers, a lantern-lit romantic anthology the Union-Tribune called “the most beautifully written” of the 2024 Fringe. St. Croix continues to create for theatres that champion bold, unflinching voices, including Rogue Machine, ArtsWest and Diversionary.
