![]() | DAVID MOORE (Foley Artist) | |||
| David got his first instrument (a trombone) when he was 6. Unfortunately his arms were too short to reach 6th position. The trumpet was next, but that was too loud and annoying and he had to choose between his music and his family. At age 14 he got his first guitar and has been playing music and working with sound ever since. His last musical effort was reviewed as being more noise then music, so it seems reasonable that if his music sounds like noise then his noise should sound like music. This is David's first performance with Wing-It, even though he has been a friend of Andrew's and Wing-It Productions for 10 years, so he is very excited to finally be qualified to work in one of their shows. | ||||
![]() | ROME DAVIS (Stage Manager) | |||
| Shalom! Rome is ridiculously thrilled to be stage manager for Wing-It for his FIRST time! He recently returned from living in New York City where he was a member of the successful sketch comedy group Bleak! Comedy. He is adjusting to the mellow Northwest vibes and thinks Wing-It is going to be a big help with that. He also thinks that writing in the third person is weird. | ||||
![]() | SKYLER BURGER (Sound Design) | |||
| Deep within Hutchinson Hall on the UW campus is where Skyler dwells during his sophomore year of college. Designing sound for shows produced by the UW Undergraduate Theater Society and the UW School of Drama has been a pleasure but he is excited for his first involvement in a Wing-It Production show. Skyler takes all his inspiration from the Great Lord Cthulhu in his house at R'lyeh where he waits dreaming. A warm thanks from Skyler to the big green guy. | ||||
