Kris Kataoka

Artist Profile

Kris is a big fan of the Constitution and most of its amendments. Although he has been a lighting and sound designer for many theatres and performing companies all over Southern California, somehow this is his first time working on a show at the Chance! Kris can often be found at the Curtis Theatre, where he has been employed for the better part of two decades as a technician, technical director, and, for the last eight years, as manager and artistic director. When he’s not doing theatre-related things he— oh who are we kidding? He’s always doing theatre-related things. Thanks to Katie and everyone at the Chance for letting him come play. Enjoy the show!
