About your Coach:

Forrest Attaway first made a major splash in the theatre world commanding the stage in such productions as David Mamet’s "American Buffalo", as James Tyrone Jr. in Eugene O’Neill’s "A Moon for the Misbegotten", Tennessee Williams’ "Night of the Iguana", N. Richard Nash’s "The Rainmaker", Anton Chekhov’s "The Seagull", Edward Albee’s "Zoo Story", Harold Pinter’s "Betrayal" David Rabe’s "Hurlyburly", and Shakespeare’s "Titus Andronicus".  But Attaway, isn’t just an actor. He’s also a producer and playwright. As a playwright he has penned 'Worth", a tough drama about crime and the middle class, and 'Columbus Day", which juxtaposes the tale of an unwed mother in Texas with a classroom of high-school kids held hostage by a round-the-bend teacher with a shotgun. He and his wife Amy and reside in Kansas City where he is the the artistic director of the Kokopelli Theatre. A long-time fan of "August: Osage County" and Mr. Letts' writing, Forrest is glad to be in Georgia preparing to direct this powerful story on stage for Greenlight Acting Studios.
