Andrew Marcus (he/him/his) – is enthusiastic in his engagement with lighting and sound design and technology and constantly strives to expand his knowledge through myriad experiences. Throughout his early years developing a passion for theater, he's been able to write, direct, act, and ultimately pursue the technical and design aspects of theater in university. He has previous work experience in regional, summer stock, collegiate, high school, and middle school theater.
Andrew had his first foray into the dramatic arts in middle school through a playwriting program facilitated by Philadelphia Young Playwrights and won multiple awards in their annual competitions against ~700 other playwrights (She and Me - 3rd place [2017], Shakespeare's Curtain Call - 2nd place [2018], cat:burgled - 2nd place [2022]). His newfound passion for the theater led him into acting onstage, amassing over 20 performance credits in 6 years. Some of his favorites include: Dogberry (Much Ado About Nothing), Professor Callaghan (Legally Blonde), and Elwood P. Dowd (Harvey).
Eventually, he stumbled his way into the technical side of theater and something just clicked. Andrew was a quick study, and has since dabbled in almost every aspect of theatre design and tech ranging from carpentry to live mixing, costume design to lighting design, and with this broad knowledge, he is able to effectively understand and communicate with all departments to foresee and minimize conflicts from pre-production through opening night. With that knowledge, he found himself in two professional internships at Quintessence Theatre Co. in Philadelphia, PA and Theater at Monmouth in Monmouth, ME. Most recently, Andrew found himself working at Berkshire Theatre Group as an electrician for their 2025 Summer season. Andrew is currently pursuing a B.F.A. in Theatre Production & Design at Ithaca College.
In his "free time," Andrew enjoys DJ'ing the longest running specialty program, The Best
of Broadway, Sunday mornings on 92
WICB (Ithaca College's FM radio station), applying to summer jobs, or procrastinating applying to said jobs by
