About Me! - The Wonderous Liam!
Liam is strange and proud of it. As an incredibly nerdy, queer, and performative experiment of a human being I bring radiance and curiosity into every room :)
What do I do?
Below are my favorite and most common job titles.
Directing
I am a natural leader guiding theatre outside of its sheltered circles and taking passionate artists with me. I specialize in experimentation, immersive experiences, and all things joyful. I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Directing from The Theatre School at DePaul University.
Dramaturgy
Dramaturgical questions seep into all of my work. Not only do I love to ask "Why?", I also feel that it is the dramaturgs responsibility to provide bouts of inspiration to their collaborators.
Writing
Plays, essays, articles, case studies, D&D campaigns... you name it, I have written it (at least once). I have a love for anti-capitalist and absurdist subjects.
Stage/Event Management
I get the job done while also spreading smiles. I have extensive experience stage managing theatrical events and managing "Magic: the Gathering" tournaments and conventions.
Arts Leadership
Raising artist pay, building people-centered practices, supporting mission commitment, and increasing diversity are the core commitments of my work as an arts leader.
Team member
With excitement to experiment and a toolbox of skills, I collaborate on many kinds of projects. I love juggling responsibilities and job titles!
