Entertain and Encourage: How Jacquelyn Revere Writes Scripts That Excite People


Listen Later

Jacquelyn Revere was born and raised in Inglewood, Ca. Jacquelyn developed a deep interest in storytelling at a young age and theatre became her outlet. A professed theatre nerd, she studied Shakespeare at Oxford University before receiving her Bachelors and Masters in Fine Arts. After graduate school Jacquelyn became the ambassador for AIS (The American Institute for Stuttering) . 

As their Ambassador she traveled to 3 continents connecting facilitating courses and speaking at different conferences. Her speaking engagements grew her a following which quickly grew her Youtube channel dedicated to visibility and advocacy for the stuttering community. Her videos were referenced in USA Today January of 2020. 

Jacquelyn has now written, produced and directed a web series, had her short film screened at The Apollo Theatre in Harlem, NY alongside this years Sundance winning film ‘Clemency' and received her first TV Writing Fellowship which began in May 2020. 

We talk about:

  • How she made a pivot from performing on the stage to writing scripts as a form of protest
  • How her acting experience at Oxford University prompted her to be more intentional with words
  • Gathering a mighty team to put together her web series, Crescendo- and how you can do it too!
  • Her personal mission as a writer
  • Her work with the  American Institute of Stuttering
