Carey Harrison
Librettist
Biography
Described in the Dublin Evening News as ‘one of the most accomplished writers of our time,’ Carey Harrison was born in Britain and raised in the United States where he has spent the majority of his working life. He began as a stage playwright, following in the footsteps of his actor parents, Rex Harrison and Lilli Palmer, whom he first watched in a series of Broadway productions from the age of 5 onwards. While at college he wrote Dante Kaputt!, a play subsequently staged at the Phoenix Theatre in Leicester, and its reception led to a job at the National Theatre of Great Britain, run by Sir Laurence Olivier. There Harrison trained as a director under Olivier, Sir Peter Brook and Sir Tyrone Guthrie, while his first plays were performed at the National Theatre and the acclaimed experimental venue of the Traverse Theatre in Edinburgh.
