Welcome to Theatre at Eastern Oregon University
|
Ken is Assistant Professor of Theatre Arts specializing in Acting and Directing. He received his BA in speech and theatre from Colorado State University and his MFA in directing from the Catholic University of America. Ken has also studied at the Neighborhood Playhouse under Sanford Meisner, the Stella Adler Studio with Stella Adler and Mano Siletti, and the Mirror Theatre with Geraldine Page. Ken came to EOU in 1999 to work in a smaller school and a better environment. Recent productions at Eastern include directing Our Town, A Flea In Her Ear, The Lion in Winter and 12th Night which received recognition at the 2000 NWDC/ACTF. In 2004, Ken directed the 75th anniversary production of Arms and the Man. In April, he appeared as Phineaus in Medea. And most recently he directed Fefu and Her Friends in an "environmental theatre" production that took place at the Stange Manor, one of La Grande's finest historical homes. When asked about his greatest achievements, Ken was torn between once consoling a crying Michael Jackson and escorting Jackie Kennedy down the stairs of the New York Public Library on 42nd Street. |
