John Wolbers

The Playing Ground - 2009

John Wolbers has written several bios for himself as an actor, but this is his first venture into the world of playwriting, other than some dreadful college pieces that will never see the light of day.  He has worked extensively in St. Louis onstage and off with Metro Theater Company, the Shakespeare Festival, Opera Theatre, St. Louis Shakespeare, Muddy Waters & Theater of the Word, Inc. to name just a few.  A native of Texas, he received his B.F.A. in performance from Southwestern University and has taught drama for C.O.C.A, Metro Theater, and the Shakespeare Festival.

He is the Youth Theatre Coordinator at the Jewish Community Center and a proud member of the Slightly Askew Theatre Ensemble.  He sends many thanks to First Run Theatre, Suki & Brian, the F & T kids, all the people who suffered through the earlier drafts of The Playing Ground, and to his Dadman who never had the opportunity.  Much love and be blessed.
