About Dexter
Two Broadway directing credits: GRACE in 2012 and LINDA VISTA 2019. Jeff-Nominated twice for Best Director in Chicago. Named Best Director by Chicao Magazine 2011. Won NYC Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Director in 2004 and nominated for a Drama Desk Award. I have directed for Steppenwolf, Goodman, Victory Gardens, and at Second City. I lead a physical theater company called Plasticene for seveteen years of critically acclaimed work. I am the Head the MFA Acting program at DePaul University where I teach acting at the undergraduate and graduate level. I have taught acting, physical theater, and improvisation to over 1000 people.
I love to introduce and remind actors of ANY level that the fundamentals of acting: relaxation, impulse, physical connection, vocal release, imagination, saying yes to the givens, deep listening, active personalization, emotional availability and excellent communication are at the very heart of our art. I am skilled at teaching or coaching anyone from beginner to seasoned professional. I have many techniques that can be applied immediately to gain confidence and results. I have been teaching acting since 1995!
