About The Directors

Rebecca and Josh Gauthier are educators at heart, with over a decade of experience each in middle schools. They love being able to combine their passion for teaching while promoting the arts with young people. When not teaching or directing, they enjoy traveling, seeing shows, pitching in with Evergreen Productions, and playing Stardew Valley.

About Our Music Director and Creative Designer:

Kate Lockwood loves working in the arts, both as the owner of Katydid Design (katydid.design), and in local theatrical collaborations with De Pere schools, community theater, and area commercials. Whether as an actress on stage or working behind the scenes with hair, make-up, costumes, and props, Kate has a passion for re-creating iconic looks and making everyone look and feel their best. As a mom of four amazing kids, she’s been proud to be a Redbird supporter since 2008.

About Our Choreographer:

Ritter Jackson has been in theatre for 16 years and has been involved in all aspects, from performing on stage, to lighting design, to costumes and choreography. When not on stage, they are equally passionate about crafting, video games, and Dr Pepper. 

As a longtime Percy Jackson super-fan, Ritter is so excited to work with DPMS to bring one of their favorite fantasy worlds to the stage!
