Appointed to Lumen Repertory Theatre's Board of Directors

Noah recently joined the board of directors at Lumen Repertory Theatre, Jacksonville’s only Equity-affiliated theatre. After moving back to Jacksonville, he began seeking collaborations that aligned with his values as an artist and found a group and space where those ideas can create new possibilities for the Jacksonville theatre scene. As much as he has to offer the theatre, he brings equal enthusiasm for continued learning and growth in this new role.

Directing The Fever for Lumen Repertory Theatre

Noah is currently directing The Fever by Wallace Shawn which follows a nameless narrator whose life is destabilized by a reckoning with suffering, violence, and complicity on a global scale. Delivered with striking intimacy, the play dissolves the boundary between speaker and listener, transforming the theatre into a shared moral space where comfort is challenged and certainty erodes.

This production opens February 20th and runs until March 7th in Jacksonville, Florida.

The Phil Mitchell Radio Hour takes on NYC and Asheville Fringe

Noah’s solo performance piece The Phil Mitchell Radio Hour has been accepted to the 24th Annual Asheville Fringe Festival as well as a 4-night run at NYC’s The Tank, where he’ll present the newly expanded 70-minute version of the show. A 2025 ArtsATL Critic’s Pick from Atlanta Fringe Festival, the show has had successful runs in both Ohio and Georgia.

An actor, playwright, and moment maker based out of Jacksonville, FL. A graduate of the University of Florida and recent graduate student at The Ohio State University.

In summary, a master of a few things, average at most things, & terrible at ping-pong.
