Les Rorick

I’ve lived in California, Virginia, Illinois & Michigan.

The creative arts — especially theatre – are my greatest interests, as well as education, sharing stories, homesteading, and retreat. 

Leisure time calls for hiking, cooking, and sitting around a campfire playing guitar with friends.

 

 

Les Rorick is an actor, director, and educator. He was Director of Theatre for Love Nail Tree, a story-telling company based in Los Angeles, where he devised thought-provoking pieces about social justice. He is also a founding member of L.A.'s no-rehearsal troupe, Street Shakespeare.

He has performed regionally at Virginia Rep and in Chicago at Filament, Strawdog, Red Theatre, iO, Prologue, Timeline, and Currently Untitled Theatre, where he was also Artistic Director. In 2019, Les produced and event directed After, a Journey Through Afterlives, a semi-immersive 10-minute play festival with The Barrens Theatre Co.

Les studied Theology at Biola University in Southern California and received his MFA in Acting from the University of Virginia. He previously taught acting, improv, circus, and public speaking courses at Act One Studios, University of Virginia, American Theater Company, Olive Tree Arts Network, and CircEsteem. He is also a professional headshot photographer and filmmaker.

Les is currently the incoming Director of Center for Theater and Full Time Faculty at Muskegon Community College.

 

I’m currently looking for theatre collaborators of all kinds. If interested, please contact me.
