In his role at Theatricus, James leads new play production initiatives and staged readings, including the VOX NOVA Playwright Festival, supporting emerging writers and artists. He is also a playwright himself and has recently directed his new play, Still Life in Central Park, a character-driven work developed through readings and a workshop process. Though he no longer performs as an actor, his years on stage and on screen continue to shape how he listens and collaborates in the room. James considers himself a working member of the theatre community, grateful for the chance to present plays alongside artists he trusts and admires.

Outside the theatre, he maintains his primary career as a Creative Director, a background that informs his sense of structure and visual storytelling.
