Kenn, in his tenth year as an Assistant Professor of Theatre Arts, considers himself a theatre generalist. His areas of concentration would include musical theatre, stage management and directing, but he also designs scenery, and teaches acting, theatre history and stage combat. He received his BA from Southern Utah University and his MFA from Michigan State University. His most recent project was directing a contemporary version of William shakespeare's Richard III. In the fall of 2010, Kenn was priviledged to direct the first amateur university production of The Phantom of the Opera in The U.S. While some of his favorite projects have included Urinetown, the Musical, The Lion In Winter, A Midsummer Night's Dream, and Much Ado About Nothing, he considers his greatest productions to be his three daughters, Jennifer, Jessica and Jillian. He and his wife, Denise are still working on making them the best that they can be. |
