Scott Barrow has been working with Tectonic Theatre Project since 2005. His first collaboration with the company was working with Moisés on 33 Variations at Georgetown, and he stayed with Tectonic through its Broadway run and in Los Angeles. Scott did the first tour of The Laramie Cycle, followed by Moisés’ one act about the lunar landing, The Dead Man’s Curve. Currently he is part of the team collaborating on and performing in Andy Paris and Anushka Paris-Carter’s Uncommon Sense. Scott teaches Moment Work workshops for Tectonic all across the country, including most recently a year-long residency at Drew University, where he and Barbara Pitts McAdams helped students develop, fully design, and stage an adaptation of Kafka’s Metamorphosis.
As an actor, Scott has also played major roles at the New York Theatre Workshop, Arena Stage, the Arden Theatre, Arkansas Repertory, Commonwealth Shakespeare, Hartford Stage, the Huntington, the Wilma Theater, the Mint, Nevada Shakespeare in the Park, DC’s Studio Theatre, New Rep, the Geva, the Olney, Portland Stage, Cincinnati Playhouse, Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey, Urban Stages, Trinity Rep, and Martha’s Vineyard Playhouse, where he is an Artistic Associate.
Drawing on more than two decades of experience as an uninterested and mediocre student, Scott has been developing alternative ways to engage students and creatively explore classroom subjects. With the Martha’s Vineyard Film Festival, Scott wrote, directed, and acted in the Professor Projector Film Series, and as director of education for Stages on the Sound, he provides year-long residencies in the arts to schools in the New York City area.
