​Hi, I'm Walker Rivard!

 

I'm a theatre producer and multidisciplinary theatre artist dedicated to developing meaningful live experiences and bringing ambitious artistic visions to life.

 

My work spans commercial theatre, nonprofit organizations, and arts education. I'm experienced in  supporting new work development, financial analysis, contracting, audience strategy, and production logistics.

 

While producing is my primary focus, I believe the best producers understand every aspect of the creative process. As a practicing director, stage manager, designer, and performer, I bring firsthand experience from across the production process into every project. That perspective allows me to collaborate effectively with artists, anticipate challenges, and build environments where creative work can thrive.

 

To me, producing is about translating artistic vision into reality— balancing creative ambition with thoughtful leadership, collaboration, and practical execution.

 

I'm currently pursuing degrees in Theatre and Mathematical Data Science at Dartmouth College, where I continue to develop both my artistic practice and my analytical approach to producing.
