Growing up I had two passions. Swimming and theatre. I went to Mesa College where I completed the two-year theatre program and two years after that I returned to work there as the scene shop foreman. I realized there that teaching and introducing elements of theatre was another passion of mine. I have worked at several theatres as an electrician and lighting designer: San Diego REP, New Village Arts, Cygnet, Moxie and Point Loma Playhouse.

There will be a pre-audition meeting held in Room 102 of the Casa del Prado Building on Thursday, November 29, 2018 from 5-6pm. 

Auditions for Moana will be on Thursday & Friday, December 13-14, 2018 from 4-6pm.

Also! Don’t forget to sign up for a 20 minute one-on-one workshop with one of our talented teaching artists. Workshops will be on Monday-Wednesday, December 10-12, 2018 from 4-6pm. Call the education office to set up a time. 619.239.1311
