Josh returned to theatre in October 2024 after a near 12-year hiatus! They currently work for the State of California and deeply believe that without theater they would not be here today. They started taking drama as an elective in middle school to acclimate to the United States and English after moving here from the Philippines with their parents and older sister. It was challenging adapting to an entirely new culture and language and they had to struggle to form bonds and relationships with anyone at the time. The community and overall effect of the arts is something that needs to be lauded, cared for, and passed on to new generations as it is such a vital part of humanity. “Art is our one true global language. It knows no nation, it favors no race, and it acknowledges no class. It speaks to our need to reveal, heal, and transform. It transcends our ordinary lives and lets us imagine what is possible.” – Richard Kamler Their previous roles since their return have been Sylvestre / Scapin, Rob Stein / Twilight of the Golds, and Norman Bulansky / The Boys Next Door – all at the amazing Chautauqua Playhouse in Carmichael, Robin “Puck” Goodfellow / Midsummer Night’s Dream at the Sacramento Shakespeare Festival hosted in the historic Sacramento City College Theater, Harry Cooper / Night of the Living Dead with the amazing Rise Up Theatre Company at the Ooley, and most recently as Buttons/Fritz / The Nutcracker: A British Panto for Sacramento City College Theater. They are making their directing debut this January with Neil Simon’s California Suite at Chautaqua Playhouse running concurrently with I Remember You and will be playing Tajomaru in Rashomon by Community Asian Theatre of the Sierras at the incredible Sierra Theatre Company in Grass Valley this coming April. They appreciate your patronage and hope you have a great time.
