Christina Kirk, Executive Director of the Nebraska Repertory Theatre Directs A Midsummer Night‘s Dream

Christina Kirk serves as the Executive Director of the Nebraska Repertory Theatre and as Director of the Johnny Carson School of Theatre & Film. Ms. Kirk brings a wide array of expertise to the theatre, including teaching, directing, performing, and overseeing the entire program makes the Nebraska Repertory Theatre an inclusive, diverse, and full, year-round regional theatre operation.  Prior to taking the leadership position at UNL, she was Chair of the Department of Theatre and Dance at Otterbein University where she had taught since 1992. 

Ms. Kirk began her performing career at the Nebraska Repertory Theatre, but has performed and directed all over the country, including the Illinois Shakespeare Festival, the Illinois Repertory Theatre, CATCO (Contemporary American Theatre Company), Heartland Theatre Company, just to name a few.  She has also been a contributing author in two theatre texts, The Art of Directing and Acting in the Space in between. 

Ms. Kirk has an M.F.A. in Directing from Columbia University in the city of New York and a B.F.A. in Acting from the University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana.

There could not be a more perfect fit for directing the Nebraska Repertory Theatre's production, A Midsummer Night's Dream which opens September 29th and runs through October 10th!  The production will be a refreshing and modern take on William Shakespeare's story and promises to deliver clever characters and costumes, relatable stories and the enthusiasm and fun from a cast who have missed the stage, as much as the theatre community has missed joining them in their story.
