Yvonne Brewster (née Clarke; 7 October 1938 – 12 October 2025) was a Jamaican actress, theatre director, producer and writer working across film, theatre, radio and television. She has been described as a "cultural visionary who helped shape modern Caribbean theatre". In 1956, she went to England to study drama at Rose Bruford College, as the UK's first Black woman drama student. On returning to Jamaica in 1965, she co-founded with Trevor Rhone Jamaica's first professional theatre company, the Barn, before returning in the early 1970s to the UK, where she co-founded Talawa Theatre Company, the first production of which was The Black Jacobins by C. L. R. James.
