Brian Westerley

Experienced Theater Director with a demonstrated history of working in the performing arts industry. I have also spent an extensive amount of time working in Human Resources in both LA & Ohio. Strong arts and design professional skilled in Microsoft Word, Excel and Strategic Planning.

I currently serve as a Regional Adjudicator for the Ohio Community Theatre Association (OCTA). In the past, I have guided collaborative efforts with Portage Path Behavioral Health (while directing “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”) to further community outreach on the subject of mentail illness and will be doing the same with the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) for “bare.” I have previously directed productions of “Tuck Everlasting” at Carnation City Players, “The Country House” at Chagrin Valley Little Theatre, “The Spitfire Grill” at Stow Players, “A Few Good Men” at Hudson Players, “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” at Brecksville Theatre on the Square, “Pilots of the Purple Twilight” at Broadview Heights Spotlights, “Lend Me a Tenor” at Brecksville Little Theatre, and “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” “Night of January 16th,” “Love Letters,” “The Senator Wore Pantyhose” and “Scotland Road” at Western Reserve Playhouse. I took “Other Desert Cities” and “Confessions from the Ladies Room” (Wolf Creek Players) and “Thumbs” (Hudson Players) to the Regional and State OCTA competitions, winning 12 awards total over the last three years. I think at this point, I can safely say that I’m well on my way to the Tonys!
