JP is thrilled to be working at Fort Peck, marking his sixth season with the theater!  Originally from southeastern Massachusetts, John holds a B.A. in Communication Studies with a Concentration in Theater Arts & Studies from Bridgewater State College.  John has worked for Arts for Schools in MA, toured with the Missoula Children’s Theater, and co-created D&J Productions, a sketch comedy group which most recently performed at Camp Mak-A-Dream.  John’s favorite roles at Fort Peck include Willard in Footloose, Horton the Elephant in Suessical, Rick in The Nerd, and Seymour in Little Shop of Horrors, where he met his wonderful wife.  Recently they have relocated to Glasgow, MT where John is the Project Director of the Fort Peck Performing Arts Project during the theater offseason.  He would like to dedicate his performance to the memory of his friend and mentor, Henry Shaffer.
