Today’s guest is Mark Neufang. Originally a native of upstate New York, Mark has 20 years experience working as an actor and director in Milwaukee and Waukesha area theaters. He earned a Bachelor's degree in in art and theater at Carroll University and began his community theater endeavors on WCT's stage in 2000 when he was cast as Freddy Eynsford-Hill in "My Fair Lady". Since then, he has participated in over 50 productions on both non-professional and semi-professional stages. He made his directorial debut at WCT with "Crimes of the Heart" in 2010, and last fall, directed a highly successful production of Edward Albee's classic "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" with Milwaukee Entertainment Group at the Brumder Mansion. As an actor, he has far too many favorite roles over 20 years to mention, but his most recent - Edward Bloom in "Big Fish" at WCT this past spring - is definitely right up there on his list. When he's not onstage, he works as Culinary Assistant for Taste of Home magazine, and is an avid reader and baker, baking up beautiful, photo-worthy desserts in his kitchen for his Neufangled Desserts followers on Instagram and Facebook. He lives in Milwaukee with his partner Jake and two crazy cats, Maggie and Digby.
