New Edgecliff Theatre: Staff addition
On March 12th, the board of New Edgecliff Theatre was introduced to the newest member of the NET staff, 
Associate Producer Devon Campailla. She joins Executive Director (and NET founder) Michael Shooner, Artistic Director Greg Procaccino and former Associate Producer (now newly promoted Associate Artistic Director) Nathan Gabriel. Ms Campailla has appeared on the NET stage in Lives of the Saints and most recently in An Evening in Durang(o). She has also worked many NET productions as stage manager. With Clear Stage, she called cues for multiple productions and played Jean Louise in To Kill a Mockingbird. She has also performed with Rising Phoenix and Know Theatre. Devon works for Sound Images, a commercial recording company downtown.
Executive Director Michael Shooner says of Ms Campailla, “Getting Devon on staff is a massive coup for NET! She is that rare find – an accomplished artist who enjoys nearly full access to her left brain – extremely bright, detail oriented and organized. She is a terrific complement to existing staff.”
While still involved on the production side (she is currently stage managing the upcoming Sam Shepard classic Fool for Love, May 9 – 26), she should provide much needed assistance with multiple administrative tasks, as well as developing, along with Mr. Gabriel, an educational outreach in the form of workshops to be presented at Hamilton County libraries.
Mr. Gabriel is a Cincinnati native who joined New Edgecliff at the top of the 2006-07 season, jumping right into the fray by directing An Evening in Durang(o), and subsequently heading up NET’s first annual Cincinnati Director’s Competition. Says Mr. Shooner, “I presented the concept for this competition at a staff meeting and Nathan enthusiastically took the idea and ran with it. We are happy he has accepted this new position.” His first project in his new capacity will be Assistant Directing Fool for Love under Mr. Procaccino’s direction.
NET hopes to announce their 2007-08 season during the run of Fool for Love. For tickets and information visit www.newedgecliff.com or call toll free 888-588-0137.
