Michael Griggs
My primary job is to be the first point of contact on the ART staff for those producing HRDC shows in the Loeb Drama Center. I meet with all producers and designers to discuss and approve their plans and budgets for production. I can advise you on issues of design, materials, contsruction and Loeb policies. If I don't have the answer I can point you to someone who does. I try to resolve conflicts between HRDC productions and the ART and Institute production departments by acting as a liason between HRDC and various departments within ART. I supervise use of the Loeb shop by HRDC productions. I maintain the tools in the red (HRDC) tool room and replenish the expendible stocks of screws, staples, glue etc. I keep the stock of lamps for the Ex lighting instruments. Check my website Loebinfo.com for other things I can provide for your shows.

You can get in touch with me anytime by e-mail: jmgriggs(.at.)fas.harvard.edu or voice mail: 496-2000 x8854.

As HRDC Advisor I am one of the primary liaisons between the American Repertory Theater and the undergraduates doing theater in The Loeb. I regularly consult with A.R.T.'s Artistic Director Diane Paulus regarding undergraduate issues. I am the faculty advisor on most HRDC mainstage shows, offer directing workshops for undergraduates directing in The Ex each semester, and assign faculty advisors for all The Ex shows. I try to help match up appropriate ART or Institute faculty, staff and/or grad students who might best assist an undergraduate with a theater question or issue. I help to address issues of communication that may come up between HRDC, A.R.T. and The Institute (the graduate theater program here at Harvard) regarding sharing space in The Loeb, and stay in regular contact with the HRDC president to find out in what ways we at A.R.T. might be of best assistance to HRDC. As part of our continued effort to help create mutually rewarding interactions and relationships between the undergraduates, the A.R.T. and The Institute please feel free to contact me and/or the HRDC board with any ideas, questions, or concerns you may have. Our goal is to achieve the best and most supportive communication possible between three strong, productive and creative entities -- we want everyone to reap maximum benefits from each other's presence here at The Loeb.
