BIO

Hello, My name is Mena Nizam. I'm a writer and future filmmaker and I'm trans/intersex Jewish/Muslim and disabled, with Pakistani origins. I'm a current graduate student at Monmouth University working towards a successful career as a filmmaker and a Historian. I've successfully put on a play at Drew University and wrote my first script on campus. This was when I was part of a club called That Medieval Thing, a dinner and tournament medieval times styled club.
I plan to act on Broadway and in musicals plus off broadway productions, write scripts, and more. Use they/zi zir/he him pronouns for me. I am the victim of sexual assault from someone I like to call Peter Smith who I lived in Brooklyn for 6 months, rented a room from/ was date raped by. I also have a group of stalkers from the anime cosplay community, for posting thirst tweets they had deleted a long time ago, and was victim, threatened with assault by them, plus one with cats called them a dog/lied about them repeatedly/threatened to burn their beautiful campus, Drew University to the ground. I consider myself to be nonbinary although more of a trans man. Yes I’m trans, yes I’m Jewish, yes I’m disabled. They/Zi/He.

I plan to bring back classics like Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde, a transgender addition (a trans man descending into madness where Mr. Hyde will be a detransitioned version of himself), Billy Elliott set in the Bronx, Dracula, Baby Reindeer: New York, My Fair Lady, and a play called Chapuys where I play Catherine of Aragon, plus a play called Battle Boys, where I play a love lorned transgender soldier. Would love to play ELPHABA as well, in Wicked.
