Merlin James
Alexandre Salisbury received the
Design in Production award at the American College Theatre Festival in 2004 for his design of
The Least of These, and is single. Having so unique a name, he is on a streak of around 17 shows
without having credit given to his name correctly, a streak he intends to
continue for years to come. He feels lucky and blessed that he has been a professional in theatre since 2003 and hasn't had a job outside of it since 2001;
his recent credits include being the Staff Sound Engineer for Kansas City
Repertory Theatre, Sound Designer and Engineer for Stages St. Louis, two seasons as the Sound Designer for Utah
Musical Theatre, and the Resident Sound Engineer for the Marriot Center for
Dance. Merlin received his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Performing Arts Design
from the University of Utah in 2006, and the theatre department awarded him
the Keith M. and Amy L. Engar scholarship for his senior year. He intends to
pursue a Masters degree at a yet-to-be-decided graduate program in the fall
of 2007. For those who wonder what happened in the void of his life from
2001 to 2003, he is proud to say that he served a two year voluntary
religious excursion for the predominant denomination of Utah in Taipei
Taiwan. Merlin dedicates every show and his entire career to the memory of
his father, James Earl Salisbury. September 2006 |
