Bob Davis

Working at Ten Thousand Things is one of the great joys of being a theater artist; it's a chance to work with the best of a city that has some of the best in the country, and play to a population that connects to the great stories of the world's literature in a way most privileged theatergoers can't.

I first saw this amazing work as an audience member, sitting among female inmates at a medium security prison. The plight of the female heroine as she was being sent to prison affected this audience with an immediacy that was electrifying. Something like that makes you want to be a part of it. I been fortunate enough to be in Antigone, Ragtime and Richard III, and can't wait to be back. It's the hardest work I do in theater and the most rewarding. I have also worked at most Twin Cities theaters including: The Jungle Theater: Betrayal, Sylvia and Lobster Alice; The Children's Theatre: Peter Pan and Esperanza Rising; Actor's Theater of Minnesota: Other People's Money and The Foreigner; Mixed Blood Theater: Living Out, A Map of the World, and bee luther hatchee; Chanhassen Theaters: Easter Parade, Grease, The Foreigner and Educating Rita; The New Classic Theater: Hunting Cockroaches and Emma Rothstein; and dozens of productions at the Guthrie Theater, including The Great Gatsby, His Girl Friday, Six Degrees of Separation, Antony and Cleopatra, The Invention of Love, Much Ado about Nothing, Cherry Orchard, Old Times, A Christmas Carol, Private Lives, The Seagull, Macbeth, The History Plays, and The Rover. I starred in the nationally syndicated television show Algo's FACTory, and can be seen in the locally shot films Nobody, Trauma, Herman USA, Factotum and A Simple Plan. My wife and I founded and direct Brazil! School of the Arts, and in 2005 I was awarded a McKnight Theater Artist Fellowship.
