Founding Member

A native of north Jersey, and a Syracuse University alumnus, Joe comes to Flux bringing with him a wide range of experience. He is a managing partner of No Time For Love Productions - a start up scenic construction company catering to small independent theaters, and has constructed sets for dozens of venues around New York. He’s worked at the George Street Playhouse as a climbing electrician, and spent time on the business end of theater as a freelance production manager, technical director and as a former member on the Board of Directors for the Astoria Performing Arts Center.

As a performer, Joe can be seen making the funny with his improv group, Devil’s Dancebelt, at top clubs like Stand Up NY and Caroline’s and has appeared in productions of all kinds - from the absurdly brilliant films of Nathan Ryan to Shakespearean endeavors like As You Like It and Measure for Measure, where he played the most diction challenged Constable Elbow on modern record. More recently, he was seen as the sociopathically strange Siles in the Spring 2006 production of August Schulenburg’s Rue. He also works with Impetuous and Boomerang Theater groups, writes and directs sketch comedy and is now writing two full length plays. Being a part of Flux gives him something wonderful to do in his otherwise slow paced hermit’s life. http://www.devilsdancebelt.com
