Geva Theatre Center has named a new Executive Director. Christopher Manelli will also join the theater as Co-CEO with Artistic Director Mark Cuddy.
Manelli comes to Geva from Victory Gardens Theater in Chicago, a 41 year old Tony Award-winning institution dedicated to new plays and playwrights, where he has served as Managing Director.
Before that, Manelli was Deputy Director at Chicago Shakespeare Theater.
Manelli will start at Geva at the end of February. He was chosen after a national search to replace Tom Parrish who left last fall to take a job in Rhode Island.
