Steve is the new Interium Producing Artistic Director of the REP, and has been a member of the REP company since it's founding in 2008.

Steve has acted at regional theatres including Seattle Repertory Theater, A Contemporary Theatre, Great Lakes Theater Festival, Baltimore Center Stage, Walnut Street Theater, the Arden Theater, Sierra Repertory Theater, the Delaware Theater Company and here at the REP. His roles have included Hamlet, Macbeth, Richard III, Henry IV, Tartuffe, Prospero, Jacques, Shylock, Cyrano, Titus Andronicus and Benedick.

His directing credits include many productions for the PTTP in its day, as well as The Importance of Being Earnest for the REP/PTTP and at the Texas Shakespeare Festival and Henry V and Major Barbara at the Idaho Shakespeare Festival. He received his B.F.A. in Theater from Illinois Wesleyan University and his M.F.A. in Theater from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

Steve spent the early part of his life as an actor, mostly in the West, in California.  Then he became mostly a teacher and director when he joined the PTTP here at UD in 1992.  Then the REP was born in 2008 and as the PTTP disolved, his teaching became academic, which is one of the best things that ever happened to him.  He was acting more, while still directing.  Last spring's Yeah Baby was Steve's first return to acting in 10 years.

Steve plans to stay off the stage, but will immediately fail as he does Love Letters in September, because he will have his hands full with his new job running the theater department and the REP…until what age? Who knows. If he messes it up, it’s back to teaching which doesn’t sound so bad.

Thanks UD for an extraordinary life.
