Background

About Evan Pappas

Member SDC, SAG-AFTRA, AEA @theevanpappas As a director, I take great pride in bringing what I learned as an observant chameleon to my productions. I love actors and I love to invent. Directing is, for me, the ultimate creative outlet. I am invigorated to challenge my imaginative limits and to ignite creativity in others. Whether it’s moment to moment work with an actor in a rehearsal room (something I craved), seeing my vision come alive in the sketches of brilliant designers, or collaborating with musicians and choreographers who take my ideas and truly make them take flight. I strive to produce works with honesty, most inventive staging, and in all different styles, following much the same path as my acting career. I insist on bringing an easy-going, collaborative energy to the process – one in which actors and creatives want to explore without feeling stifled or inhibited in any way. Without making immodest comparisons, I am so proud to take what I have learned from the amazing directors with whom I’ve worked and create magic of my own from mere words on a page.
