Literary Manager. New Works Director. Dramaturg. Illustrator. Sometimes Playwright.
Todd is the Literary Manager of Portland Stage. He is also a director, dramaturg, illustrator, and occasional playwright. This past spring he directed The Cake by Bekah Brunstetter on Portland Stage’s mainstage. At the same time his short play Flirting with Disaster was featured in the Maine Playwrights Festival (you can watch it here). Later in May he also produced the 34th Annual Little Festival of the Unexpected featuring The Pageturners by Mallory Jane Weiss and Manning by Benjamin Benne. In his down time he’s been hard at work behind the scenes (and in front of the microphone) with Dungeons + Drama Nerds (which is releasing their third season). He is one of the founding members of PowerOut, and is often found book-in-hand reading for an upcoming project.
Inspired by Sarah Ruhl, Moises Kaufman, and more, Todd seeks to create experiences that can only be found in the theatre. Todd aims to connect with a diverse array of writers, and performers in order to better reflect the beautiful, messy, and complicated picture of our increasingly interconnected lives.
Upcoming:
Todd will be directing What the Constitution Means to Me by Heidi Schreck next season at Portland Stage.
Todd is at work penning Emily Dickinson and the President’s Box, the sequel to his popular Emily Dickinson: Paranormal Investigator.
