Two posts for today! Two of our directors for Room 128! Not too mention Jak is the man who transformed our lovely room into a viable theatre space!! Oh...and as I just learned there both from the distant land of New Jersey.




Name:  Jak Prince

Hometown:  Totowa, NJ    

Favorite Color: Blue    

Favorite Food:  Personal recipe Chicken Pockets

Superhero Power: Staying up all night!

Role in Hotel Suite: Director ("Just Another Sappy Slap Happy Face") Scenic
design and Technical Director

What inspires you:  Working with the very talented members of this ensemble

Biggest challenge with Hotel Suite:  Other than dealing with the randomness
of the NJ Transit bus schedule, my biggest challenge has been turning a
hotel room into a theatre which is supposed to look like a hotel room!
Juggling the needs of 8 very different scripts into one design that works
for everyone and keeping the blood off the floor!  But it is a labor of love
as I look forward to each meeting, rehearsal and performance with great
anticipation because of the wonderful people I work with.  



Name: Tim Errickson

Hometown: Vineland, NJ

Favorite Color: Blue

Favorite Food: Sushi

Superhero power: Unlimited daily calorie burnoff

Role with Hotel Suite: Director of GREENLIGHT by Angela C. Hall, part of Room 
128

What inspires you: Positive people, people who see that anything is possible. Also Jack Daniels, good music, and Friday Night Lights

Biggest challenge with Hotel Suite: Being open to what the Hostel would really be like while we were rehearsing. I've never directed a show in a hostel before (scratch that off the bucket list) so staying flexible enough to still find happy accidents and new things in the hostel while in tech.
