The Chatham Arts Council is investing in artists through our Meet This Artist series, introducing you to Chatham County’s creative community one interview at a time. This Meet This Artist feature is made possible with support from VRC, Ltd.
In this special audio feature, we meet Derrick Ivey, a longtime Chatham County resident and regional theater artist with more than 30 years of work as an actor, director, designer, choreographer, producer, administrator, and educator. He is also one of the founders of RedBird Theater Company.
In this conversation, we catch up with Derrick by asking what connects all those parts of his work: storytelling, listening, design, directing, the need for flexible performance spaces.
So, take a look–or in this case, have a listen—and meet your very inspiring neighbor.
