What's Jake doing next...
Ride The Cyclone
In the summer of 2024, I finished performances for Ride The Cyclone. This production was extremely special to me being that I not only directed/choreographed, but also starred in it playing the role of Noel Grubber.
In the spring of 2024, I finished performances for Head Over Heels. This being a comedy - I was so excited to start working on comedic timing and what makes the text funny. I played the role of Dametas. ​​
Cabaret
In the fall of 2023, I finished performances for Cabaret. I was so excited to jump into a serious piece and portray the character, Herr Shultz. Playing an older individual is always a challenge, but I was able to make the most of it.

Firebringer
In the fall of 2022, I made my directorial debut for Firebringer. I wanted to direct something I knew the ins and outs of - comedy. I had an amazing time working with my cast and crew to make the stunning performance.

Ordinary Days
In October 2022, I finished performances for Ordinary Days as a part of University Player's fall season. I played the role of Warren! I was so fortunate enough to meet the playwright and composer of Ordinary Days - Adam Gwon. With his kind words and inspiration, I was able to portray this character with my best foot forward.
