Kyra Davis is a Southern artist who traded in Southern hospitality to take on the city that never sleeps to further her career in acting, writing, and creating. She was a part of the Inaugural class in the Uptown Collective’s Renaissance Playwright Residency and currently a producing fellow at The Tank in NYC. Her play, SugarHill, has been workshopped at The Flea Theater and further developed with Dramatic Question Theatre. Check out her web series ‘Front of House Faux Pas’ that she wrote, produced, and starred in on Instagram and Youtube.

Her passion is to create art for underrepresented voices and advancing their opportunities in the industry. Her inspirations are the Black women who came before her and the young Black women who will come after her. She desires to create works that empower and encourage them to live their lives unapologetically. Selected credits include: Law and Order: Organized Crime, Jitney (Rena), Intimate Apparel (Esther), and The Christians (Elizabeth).
