Summer 2008: Artistic Director of Tidewater Regional Repertory Theatre (New SPT Theatre in Virginia). Mission: Founded in 2007 and operating in partnership with Christopher Newport University and the Ferguson Center for the Arts, Tidewater Regional Repertory Theatre (TRR) is dedicated to producing plays and musicals that illuminate all that is passionate, profound, diverse and daring in the great American spirit. Our focus is on theatre inspired by and created from America’s complex cultural landscape. Tidewater Rep is a place to celebrate all that constitutes the unique American consciousness. It is a place for audiences to experience, discuss and deliberate through theatrical imagination—to be entertained, challenged and inspired by America’s greatest playwrights. At the center of TRR is artistic expression; all other programs are born, grow and thrive in support of the art of theatre.
