A somewhat-recent graduate from Old Dominion University, Casey holds a BFA in Theatre for acting and has been in shows such as Scapino!, Little Shop of Horrors, and The Women of Lockerbie. He's made a small niche in moving things around silently from his performance in The Fantasticks at the Wells Theatre, and over the past summer has been spinning fire, walking on stilts, and generally clowning-around at the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. |
