Kevin Magri
Kevin S. Magri has performed with Theatre on the Edge since 2003. He sometimes operates the lights, manages the front-of-house, or hosts the show; otherwise, he acts on stage or provides musical accompaniment on flute or piano. On special occasions, he is one-half of the German Synth-Pop duo Kevin und Kevin. Kevin also performs regularly with the Mysterious Players dinner-theatre troupe in Aberfoyle and across the province (http://mysteriousplayers.com/).
He performed in the award-winning production of As Bees in Honey Drown with the Cambridge Community Players (http://www.cambridgecommunityplayers.com/), and in the Royal Medieval Faire (http://www.royalmedievalfaire.org/). In addition to performing in various shows with the Kitchener-Waterloo Little Theatre (http://kwlt.org/), he has sat on the Board of Directors for the Kitchener-Waterloo Improv Festival.
In high-school, he contributed as writer and performer to the ensemble play I Live in a Little Town which was invited to perform at the Sears Ontario Drama Festival Showcase. (Fun fact: the little-known Canadian actor Rachel McAdams was a co-performer.)
Outside of theatre, Kevin worked as
* an academic researcher of literature and literary history
* a university lecturer, a college professor, and a French/English teacher
* an editor and writer.
He currently works in the home furnishings business.
