Paul J. Susi
has been an artistic collaborator and UTB troupe member from the beginning, multiple-cast as actor, technician, dramaturg and strategist. He is a pivotal participant on UTB's epic theatre project The Inkwell Communiques, and created the role of Bamboo in UTB’s production of A Lovely Day, and played the role of Fool in Fools Fall.

Paul's work as a theatre artist and educator draws extensively from experience as a librarian, an EMT-Basic, a Wildland Firefighter and a puppeteer. In his native Portland, he also worked as a performer and an educator with CITE, a children's theatre that educates local elementary and middle school students about recycling and energy conservation.

Paul trained with the American Conservatory Theater [STC] in San Francisco and the British-American Youth Festival Theatre in San Diego (BAYFest).

In 2008, Mr. Susi was a guest artist at Shakespeare Santa Cruz playing the role of Badger in the beloved holiday offering: The Wind In The Willows.

Other credits onstage include Zimmerman's Metamorphoses and Ruhl's Eurydice at Artists Rep (Portland, OR), Ride The Red Moon at Tears Of Joy Puppet Theatre (Vancouver, WA), The Drawer Boy at Vermont Stage Company (Burlington, VT) and Project Blue with both Hand2Mouth Theatre (Portland, OR) & Stacja Szamocin (Szamocin, Poland).
