Susanne Kennedy, born in 1977 in Friedrichshafen, is a German director known for producing societal theatre.

Born in 1977, Susanne Kennedy is a German director. She lives and works in Berlin. Her theatrical devices, at the intersection of video installation and performance, transform actors into disembodied presences, as though estranged from their own existence. Equipped with silicone masks, they perform playback of pre-recorded studio dialogues, which intensify the disconnection between their voice and their body. The stage becomes a simulacrum of a domestic universe, conducive to revealing the unconscious of the digital world and the underside of consumer society.
