Maddie Bautista (she/her) is a Bi, Saudi Arabia-born Filipina sound designer and composer. In the daytime, you can catch Maddie creating and shaping sound in iconic theatres across the country – from composing original music in the earliest stages of new work development, to tuning systems with live musicians and mid-sized casts. After the sun goes down, she moonlights as half of xLq with Jordan Campbell – a queer pop performance duo who tours across the country with their daring, interactive theatre and bizarre, grungy drag.

Maddie received 2 Dora Mavor Moore Awards for Love You Wrong Time (Outstanding Sound design and Ensemble). Selected sound credits: King James (Theatre Aquarius), Get That Hope, Les Belles-Soeurs (Stratford Festival), seven methods of killing kylie jenner (Crows and Obsidian), Woking Phoenix (Silk Bath and TPM), and Wild Woman (Soulpepper). www.maddiebautista.com
