Nolan Boggess is a theatre director living in Boston. Originally from Iowa, Nolan’s theatre obsession began with the VHS of Cats and one too many productions of The Music Man. A graduate of Grinnell College, Nolan recently worked at the Public Theater in NYC and is currently devising theatre for a history museum. He is so thrilled to be apart of the Theatrely team - say hi to him on social media!
