Jarred Corona

I'm a writer, composer, lyricist, actor, and director currently based in Savannah, GA. I received my B.A. in theatre from Western Kentucky University in 2020. I love theatre and writing with all my heart, and will eagerly geek out about it if you let me. In the meanwhile, I'll be lost adrift somewhere between reality and the reality of my waking dreams, searching and longing for a great perhaps.
