About Nell

Nell Weatherwax holds a BA in Movement Theater and a Masters degree in Counseling, both from Indiana University. As a student, teacher and performer of movement theatre since the mid-80s, she draws from a variety of disciplines to teach and perform.

Nell studied and performed physical theater with Sigfrido Aguilar in Guanajuato, Mexico. She has performed regularly at the Bloomington Playwrights Project and has also taught mime and movement theater in schools in Indiana and Texas. Nell has performed and taught mime and physical theater throughout Indiana with support from the Indiana Arts Commission.


In 1992 she co-founded What If... InterAction Theater , a theater-based educational theater company that serves at-risk youth and adults in Indiana. In 1996, Nell moved to San Francisco to explore Playback Theatre, Body Tales, Motion Theater, and long form sketch comedy improv theater at Bay Area Theatre Sports.

Currently residing in Bloomington, Indiana, Nell has been performing her one-woman shows since her debut of the form at the Bloomington Playwrights Project in 2004. She is currently available to do performances of her entirely true one-woman show And I Am Not Making This Up and to offer workshops in Improvisational Movement Theater to adult groups nationally
