WHO IS KAYPRI
As the only child of two older civil rights activists, Kaypri describes herself as a Creative Missionary who brings good stories to life on stage and screen as a multi-hyphenate artivist.
She holds a BFA in Drama and is best known for her two crowd-pleasing autobiographical solo plays BABYGIRL: THE COMING OF AGE SITCOM/DRAMA OF A MEDIA-CODEPENDA-LOVA-HOLIC and its sequel, THE GOOD DAUGHTER & THE DO GOODER, that both tackle difficult subjects with heart and humor. She won her first filmmaking award from the AARP for her heartfelt caregiver PSA, THE BATON, which featured her and her mother. She has also edited several books, including her aging mother's civil rights memoir, which she completed for her 80th (surprise) birthday.
Kaypri has a gift for screenplay adaptations and developmental book editing, which due to the multiple characters she has jumped into onstage, easily allows her to do the same on the page! In addition to being a New Humanitas New Voices finalist for THE GOOD DAUGHTER, her work has garnered recognition from Sundance, Stowe, and The Script Lab, where she placed as a quarterfinalist amongst nearly 12,000 free submissions!
THE BABYGIRL SHOW, the adaptation of her first solo play, was on Coverfly's Red List two years straight and was named in the top 10% for Best Television Comedies in 2025 before it folded. Kaypri worked as a staff writer on the WGA signatory series SAHM and proudly served as the Atlanta WGA Captain during the 2023 strikes. She finished post-production on WHITE TEARS, her short film debut, in the fall of 2026 and is a current Pink Among Men filmmaker fellow, and MFA Candidate at Antioch University.
