David is a director, music director, and performer in the Portland area, and he’s excited to jump into his first summer at Stages! He is the Performance Operations Director on the board at Lyric Music Theater in South Portland and has happily worked with many local theaters.
David’s first ever show was “Romeo and Juliet: Together and Alive At Last” in the seventh grade. To his dismay he was cast as Romeo, so for weeks he enjoyed eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to avoid the kissing scenes (Juliet was conveniently allergic). Try as he might, he still fell in love with theater, and the rest is history. Favorite roles include a juvenile delinquent, an ex-convict, a scarecrow (twice), a man with claustrophobia, and a donkey.
When he’s not in the theater you can find David kayaking, working on a puzzle, and spending time with his wife and two dogs.
David joined the STAGES team in 2024 and will be co-directing our Summer Showcase Cabaret!
