Cleveland Public Theatre’s (CPT) Executive Artistic Director Raymond Bobgan is proud to welcome Michael “Moon” Roesch as the new Technical Director. Michael “Moon” Roesch brings vast and diversified experience in a multitude of fields, including Technical Direction and Multi-Media Design. His aptitude for long-term vision and his collaborative spirit makes him an excellent addition to the CPT Senior Staff Leadership Team. Michael served as CPT Technical Director from 2010 to 2012 and CPT is thrilled he has returned.

“I’m excited to return to CPT partially because of my familiarity with the organization and some of the artists, but especially because of the quality and types of work they do here. There is no place like CPT! It is unique at least in the region if not the country or the world.” – Michael “Moon” Roesch, CPT Technical Director

Michael, also known as “Moon” to his friends, is a jack-of-all-trades multimedia artist, producer, designer, and technician. This is his second stint at CPT after serving in the same capacity from 2010-2012. For the last 8 years, he was the Technical Director and Resident Designer at the Fine Arts Association in Willoughby, Ohio. He has also been a guest designer for Case Western Reserve University’s Theatre Department since 2000. Other notable organizations he has worked for include Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland Play House, Cleveland School of the Arts, Cleveland State University, Dobama Theatre, Lake Erie College, and Oberlin College.
