For nearly 20 years, Erik has dedicated his time and life to producing a variety of theater experiences and his passion and love for the craft is something he loves sharing with those who seek it out for themselves.
Erik offers a wealth of experience in the performing arts. With over 10,000 students taught across 40 states and hundreds of communities, his fun, engaging, and dynamic approach to theater has connected with and inspired many to witness and experience the importance of community, the sense of self-expression, and, most importantly, the fun of performing! With over 150 productions directed and facilitated, Erik leads his programs with the highest standards of artistic and educational excellence.
“My kids and I had so much fun performing in Erik’s plays. From the first improv game to the final bow, each session was a joyful experience. Erik’s energy and enthusiasm inspired everyone, including the more hesitant young actors. I’ll always appreciate Erik for helping my family make wonderful memories together!” -Becky L.
