Michael Stebbins*

Michael Stebbins is Door Shakespeare’s Producing Artistic Director, and was seen onstage last summer as the Archbishop of Canterbury in Henry V. He has appeared on professional stages across the country, from NYC’s The Public Theater/NYSF and the Mint Theatre Company, to California’s Berkeley Repertory Theatre, and many states in between. Wisconsin credits include Milwaukee Chamber Theatre, Optimist Theatre (aka Milwaukee’s Shakespeare in the Park), Skylight Music Theatre, Theatre Gigante, and Peninsula Players. Recent directing credits include productions at the Rochester Civic Theatre Company and the Door Shakespeare Reading Series. He is the former producing artistic director of Rep Stage, a regional theatre in Maryland, where he championed works by up-and-coming playwrights, and embraced theatrical gems by scribes of old. Michael received his BFA/MFA from University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee’s Professional Theatre Training Program. He is the recipient of a Helen Hayes Tribute Award for his work in the DC/MD/VA region, and is a proud member of Actors’ Equity Association.
