Baisch is already an incredibly accomplished playwright and visual artist. He was named one of “six theatre workers you should know” by American Theatre Magazine in 2018, was interviewed in BOMB Magazine and in March he received the KCACTF Latinx Playwriting Award from the Kennedy Center for his thesis play, Dry Swallow. This award is a national honor and includes opportunities for further professional development. Dry Swallow was first performed at Brown last fall.
