Kevin Finkelstein is a first-year MA student in Theatre & Performance Studies. For the past three decades, Kevin has worked professionally up and down the Eastern Seaboard as a playwright, director, producer, composer, filmmaker and actor. Kevin's work has been seen on stages from Manhattan to Miami, on NPR and at the AFI Silver Theatre. As an award-winning, hard-of-hearing practitioner, Kevin's dual focus has been on presenting classic texts to modern audiences, and engaging audiences in non-partisan civic engagement. Here in Colorado, Kevin's research focuses on the intersection of disability performance, activism and classical text. Past favorites include Nicky Silver's Fat Men in Skirts, a fully re-gendered Henri IV in rep and A Klingon Christmas Carol in the original Klingon, starring Marc Okrand (the linguist credited with inventing the Klingon language). He holds a BA in History/Philosophy from UMGC (2022), where his capstone was on the Federal Theatre Project, Orson Welles and the so-called Voodoo Macbeth. More details on his career can be found here: .
