We’re pleased to share that 2024-25 DET Program Director, Kate Sullivan, will be directing an episode of Season 3 of Netflix/20th’s NOBODY WANTS THIS! Kate’s work celebrates stories centered on women, ideally with music at the core, and always with a sense of fun. Her short film, THE END OF THE PARTY, premiered at the 2024 Tribeca Film Festival in New York City. Previously, Kate served as Head of Development for Thomas Kail’s (HAMILTON) production company, Old 320 Sycamore, and produced television shows such as FOSSE/VERDON (FX), UP HERE (Hulu), and WE WERE THE LUCKY ONES (Hulu). Kate also produced the feature film WORLD’S BEST (Disney+). Her theater work has been supported by New York Stage and Film, The Geffen, The American Conservatory Theater, among many others. Kate was raised in the tiny sea-side town of Marblehead, MA, where she honed expert skills in cracking open a lobster. Kate is thrilled to make her transition to episodic directing on NOBODY WANTS THIS. Way to go, Kate!
