Edward Hightower

Audible: Horse Tales (Narrator)

Ongoing commercial project: Wayne McFarkus for Silver Peak.

Edward's most recent live theatrical endeavor was Cervantes / Quixote in Man of La Mancha at Custom Made Theatre Company. Prior to that: Neville Craven in The Secret Garden at 42nd Street Moon, Julian Marsh in 42nd Street at Pacific Coast Repertory Theatre, Billy Flynn in Chicago at Lucky Penny in Napa, Luther Billis in South Pacific at Woodminster Amphitheatre, and Dr. Danielson in The North Pool at Dragon Theatre. Other favorites include Lord Farquaad in Shrek at Woodminster Apmhitheatre (2016 TBA Award), Henry Higgins in My Fair Lady at Pacific Coast Repertory Theatre, and Clown Two in The 39 Steps at San Jose Stage Company. Edward is represented by MDT, and is a proud member of Actors' Equity Association.

A graduate of the Boston Conservatory, Edward has spent the last 29 years working on both sides of the curtain, and the last 18 years on both sides of the camera. Equally at home on film and on stage, Edward is not easily pigeon-holed: his musical theatre experience is matched by his Shakespearean gravitas, both of which color his work in Improv and Stand-up.

Edward is an avid (read: obsessed) backpacker (JMT 1992 & 2009), and will talk your ear off if you raise the subject. You can savor his original fiction someday, when he publishes.
