Eric Mowery
("Foreman," "Frank," "Peterson," and
"Rollins")
Eric Mowery is a 28-year old enigma framed in a
mystery. His real name is
unpronounceable, and it's not even clear when and whence he came unto the
scene. Old newspaper clippings
revealed that he once lived in a small, highly conservative town in Central
Pennsylvania. It was here that he
first "cut his teeth" in the world of theatre. After working on set design most of his life, he took the
leap into acting in Jerry Mayer's KILLJOY and he never looked back.
You may have just seen him in the Subversive Theatre
staged reading of GUANTANAMO
or you may have found him helpful as the manager of Old Editions Bookstore in
downtown Buffalo. Either way,
don't get attached. He'll steel
your heart. |
