About

Carolina Stevens is an American theatre artist who has worked in theatre on four continents.  Primarily a stage director, she has additional experience in stage management, playwriting, acting, singing, and arts education.  As the child of two international opera singers, Carolina has been involved in the performing arts her entire life; in fact, her first production occurred when she was only 5-years-old and starred in a one-act play version of Mozart’s opera The Magic Flute that she herself wrote, designed, cast, and helped direct.  In many ways, that experience provided the blueprint for her future career, as she has continued to do a variety of jobs in many different theatrical mediums, including straight plays, musicals, Shakespeare, opera, and Commedia dell’Arte.  Carolina graduated with honors from Southern Oregon University’s Theatre Arts department, where she focused on Directing and Stage Management with minors in German and Business Administration.
