Una McKevitt is an Irish writer and director working across theatre, comedy and television. Her most recent play Fair Deal premiered at the Abbey Theatre Peacock Stage in spring 2026 and sold out a seven-week run. The play was called “an absolute hoot” (The Irish Times), “an instant classic” (Sunday Independent) and “a brilliantly original romp” (Irish Mail on Sunday).

Theatre work includes One Good Turn, commissioned by the Abbey and staged on its main stage in June 2021. Directed by Emma Jordan, the Sunday Business Post called it ‘a thrilling return to live theatre for the Abbey’. She is currently developing a new commission with the theatre and writing for television.

As a live podcast director, Una directed the arena-stage tour of My Therapist Ghosted Me (Global), starring Vogue Williams and Joanne McNally, and the 2023–24 Irish tour of the Spencer & Vogue podcast. Recently, she directed the after-show for the London premiere of Alice and Steve with Disney Plus UK.

Una often collaborates with comedians. She directed Joanne McNally’s one-woman show Bite Me and her stand-up show The Prosecco Express. She co-created the play Madhouse with PJ Gallagher and edited his memoir published by Penguin Random House in 2023. Most recently she edited Vogue Williams’s memoir Big Mouth, published by HarperCollins UK in May 2025.
