Logan Collins is a queer visionary director-playwright, who thrives on exploring innovative contemporary theatre and radical revivals of the classics.
His dedication to collaboration has awarded him the opportunity to work with a variety of non-profit theaters, including impactful partnerships with Oklahoma Shakespeare in the Park, Lyric Theatre (under the artistic direction of Michael Baron), and Oklahoma City Repertory Theater.
Logan’s transformative experience as OKC Rep’s first artistic intern, under the artistic direction of Kelly Kerwin, fueled his appetite for producing top-tier, cutting-edge work. Being the theater’s second year under Kelly’s leadership, Logan learned what it takes to build a non-profit theatre from the ground up. Between the mentorship of Kelly Kerwin and managing director, Emily Comisar, Logan garnered skills in directing, producing, company management, and theatre administration.
Throughout his time at OKC Rep, Logan produced a pre-show performance series entitled “Rep Rallies.” These two-minute pop-up performances showcased different members of the OKC artistic community while elaborating on themes within the production. From sketch comedy to lip sync battles, duet tap, and spoken word, Logan produced Rep Rallies for QUEEN’S OF SHEBA following its run at Lincoln Center Theater in collaboration with the Under the Radar Festival, Anthony Hudson’s LOOKING FOR TIGER LILY, and THE ANTELOPE PARTY directed by Jesse Jou. He also co-produced “OKC Play Club” which worked to bridge the gap between OKC creatives and audiences. Teaming up with local breweries, OKC Play Club met monthly to read aloud plays being considered for production at OKC Rep.
A fervent advocate for learning, Logan is most at home "in the room," whether serving as an assistant director, keen observer, or general handy man. While he may not wield a hammer or Allen wrench with finesse, his proficiency lies in crafting and cultivating ideas, and he eagerly embraces opportunities to expand
