Meredith Armstrong (Facilities Manager)

What started as an act of convenience has turned into years of commitment to caring for GreenStage’s diverse assortment of theatrical goodies. From Fluffy the Deer to the smallest plastic kazoo, from Falstaff’s belly to Lear’s storm, from Juliet’s red dress to Bottom’s donkey ears, if it is in our collection, she will help you find it. (Actually, she’s a little scared by how much she knows about the contents of the storage space. For instance, she knows where all of those items are without having to look.) Thank you for coming out to the park and supporting live theatre!

Erin Day (Artistic Director)

Since moving from Washington D.C., she found a home in GreenStage and finds nothing grander than playing with them and with you. Around town, she has performed at Seattle Public Theater, Theatre Babylon, Seattle Fringe Festival, The Washingtonians! and others. She is currently a member of The Midnite Mystery Players and is honored to serve as Artistic Director for GreenStage. Thanks to her amazing family and especially to you. Enjoy the show!

Natalie Gress (Co-Managing Director)

Natalie fell in love with the magic of GreenStage since she first started as an intern in 2013! Since then she has directed youth in the summer camps, became a tour manager, and then a technical director. She’s enjoyed acting in Midsummer, Merry Wives, and Comedy of Errors and looks forward to the many summers ahead of providing the community with free outdoor theatre – or as Erin would call it “food for the soul.” Outside the parks, she works as a theatre educator and hopes to inspire a love for the arts in future generations.

Ken Holmes (Co-Managing Director)

Since 1993, Ken has been working with GreenStage in many capacities. Before joining the company, he had never even read an entire Shakespeare play. Happily, and thanks to GreenStage, he is now proud to say he has taken part in productions of all 39 of Shakespeare’s 37 plays. Ken has worked as an actor, director, prop maker, set designer, graphic designer, photographer, board member, artistic director, managing director, and…well, pretty much everything that needs doing when producing theatre. In the real world, Ken is a graphic designer and photographer and lives in Kent with his lovely wife Lisa, and their daughter Ruby.
