Kerrigan Quenemoen (she/her/hers) was born in New Haven, CT but grew up in Houston, TX which is where she found her love for theatre. She graduated magna cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa from Dartmouth College with a BA in Theatre in June 2020. Her studies in college brought her to the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts (LAMDA) and internships at Northern Stage and WP Theatre (NYC).

Kerrigan was first introduced to theatre when she auditioned for A Midsummer’s Night Dream in sixth grade. Ever since her theatre debut as Peaseblossom, she fell in love with plays, from Shakespeare to Ming Peiffer, and has been in rehearsal ever since. During her time at Dartmouth College, Kerrigan held the lead role in six departmental shows, including Julia in 1984 and Violet Hunter in The Sweet Science of Bruising (U.S. Premiere). She also produced, wrote, and acted in her one woman senior thesis, Inhibit/ed. Additionally, she was an Undergraduate Advisor for the college and a Peer Advisor for the Dartmouth Department of Theatre.

Since graduating, Kerrigan was named the BOLD Artistic Fellow at Northern Stage for the 2021 & 2022 seasons. Through this fellowship, she was mentored by Artistic Director, Carol Dunne, and BOLD Associate Artistic Directors, Jess Chayes & Sarah Wansley. She then went on to become the Producing Assistant for the Williamstown Theatre Festival this past season - working with Producer, Danielle King. Kerrigan now resides in New York City where she works as a freelance producer and actor.

In her free time, Kerrigan loves to bake cakes, collect cool earrings, and eat phenomenal Tex Mex and BBQ food to feel like she is back home in Houston.
