Shane Marsh — Production Designer

Shane (he/him) is a mysterious being, so mysterious in fact that he evaded all of our attempts to photograph him, and we had to settle for his school ID photo. Nevertheless, he is a jack of all technical theatre trades. He lurks in the shadows of your local theatres and live entertainment venues, making minor miracles meticulously maintaining facilities, theatrical equipment, building sets, props, and dazzling his performers with fun lights. He is a graduate of the BFA Technical Production program at the University of Alberta, and is a current Mechanical Engineering Technology student at the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology. Some recent show credits include Orpheus in the Underworld (Opera Theatre), Cymbeline and Rhinoceros (University of Alberta) and Peter Pan Goes Wrong (Mischief Theatre/Arts Club Theatre Company). As always, he is happy to have the opportunity to work with his friends and the theatre community.
