Noel Benoza (director) The bulk of Noel's work has been in theater. Most of his work has been in the Bay Area and occasionally in Los Angeles. He has worked on big and small productions and workshops for The Asian American Theater Company, Campo Santo, Thick Description, San Jose Rep, The Mark Taper, Word for Word, and The Magic Theater. As for musical influences, he'll listen to a little of everything...
Amy Crelly (assistant director) grew up to the sounds of Star Wars, Grease, Solid Gold, School House Rocks, and Flashdance. She has taught literature and poetry for four years and is currently editing Robert Karimi's poetry teaching text. Now and then, she still likes to get in touch with her inner latch key child by closing the curtains, locking the door, turning up the volume up and dancing like a maniac all over the house.
