Adam Koda is an actor, deviser, and physical theater artist based out of New York City. Since graduating from Point Park University in 2023 with a BFA in Acting, Adam has worked with classical theater companies across the country, bringing Shakespeare to audiences from New York to California.

During the pandemic, Adam came across a quote attributed to Paul Ryan Rudd: “If an actor can do Shakespeare, they can do anything.” That idea became a guiding principle during quarantine, inspiring him to spend those quiet months deepening his Shakespeare practice. When the world began to reconnect, he carried that work with him into a growing career in classical theater.

This production marks Adam’s directorial debut.
