I love to direct. I began directing as a college student when I co-directed a production of Carousel in Kenmore, New York in 1982. Now, 37 years later, I have directed more than a hundred plays and musicals across the United States and around the world. I love actors and truthful acting, I love the magic of collaborating with a design team to make bold, theatrical choices, and I love creating unique productions. Do you need a director? Send me a note on the Contact page and we’ll dream of the possibilities.
