Catherine Dribb is a writer, theatre performer and director who currently lives in Austin, TX.   Bounding through the curtain, off the stage and beyond the box office, Catherine is an avid traveler and an angst-filled poet.  She can play a mean game of cards.    Like most artists, she holds several degrees in human frivolity which do not pay her rent. And secretly, she would someday like to be the finger that pokes the Pillsbury Dough Boy.


Dr David Glen Robinson, a long-time follower of Austin theatre, is a member of the board of Tutto Theatre.


Brian Paul Scipione returned to Austin Live Theatre in early 2013 after a lengthy professional excursion to the Middle East.  His work has been published in Insite magazine, Austin, and elsewhere.
