Gregg W. Brevoort has been directing both at the professional and university level for the past 24 years. He holds a BFA in Acting and Directing from New York University and an MFA degree in Directing from Columbia University.

He has had a particularly busy and satisfying season, having just directed Michael Healey’s The Drawer Boy for the Merc Playhouse in Twisp, WA. Immediately prior to that, he directed Shakespeare’s Coriolanus for the Texas Shakespeare Festival in Kilgore, TX. One Austin newspaper’s headline proclaimed that Coriolanus was “Worth the 5 Hour Drive.”

Earlier in 2006, Gregg directed Christopher Durang’s Laughing Wild for the Lost Nation Theater in Montpelier, VT - which was also very successful and well-received.

Other recent directing credits include Edward Albee’s Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? for the Mystic Bison Theatre in San Francisco, and Henry IV, Part 1 for the Virginia Shakespeare Festival in historic Williamsburg. Also, he directed All’s Well That Ends Well and The Cherry Orchard for the Culver City Public Theatre in Los Angeles, and has since become artistic advisor for the company.

In studying and honing his craft, he has worked with such artists and theatrical leaders as Anne Bogart, Andrei Serban, Robert Woodruff, Gerald Schoenfeld, Howard Rogut, Evangeline Morphos, David Mamet, Robert Moss, Molly D. Smith, JoAnne Akalaitis, Ruth Maleczech, Oskar Eustis, and others.
