The group of educators, artists, and actors came together in 2008 under the leadership of Mark Krikstan, founding Artistic Director, to create an organization that would bridge educational and professional theatre. In just seven years, 1st Stage has grown from a grass roots collective of local artists to an award-winning institution with national recognition. The hard work and dedication of 1st Stage’s founding Artistic Director and artists paved the way for the hiring of current Artistic Director Alex Levy in September of 2014. Alex comes to 1st Stage with extensive artistic and managing experience in New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles.
