Hello! I am Asa Graham-Lowengard (he/him), a multidisciplinary artist based in Boston.
Most of my professional experience lies in the acting and theatre sphere—previous roles include two seasons as Zax/Kat, et al. in the Lyric Back Stage education program (The Lyric Stage Company of Boston, 2023-2024), H in the premier production of H & G, A GREAT AND TERRIBLE STORY, featuring a libretto by Anna Maria Hong and Jean Randich, music by Allen Shawn, and projections by Sue Rees (Bennington College, 2022), one of the Torah Children in SALT OFF A BIRD'S TAIL by Ruby Lee Lowenstein (Bennington College, 2021), and the Telegraph Boy in THE SKIN OF OUR TEETH by Thornton Wilder (VoiceTheatre, 2017). I have a longstanding relationship with new and experimental theatre, and am often a collaborator on in-process, ensemble-driven, partially devised, and/or interdisciplinary works. Many of the projects I have been involved in have amalgamated theatre with music, creative movement and dance, puppetry, mask, literary adaptation, audience immersion, and/or video—I love exploring and uplifting all art forms through my work as an actor! I have also worked for several arts organizations in various non-acting capacities (among them: Puppet Showplace Theater, INTAR Theatre, VoiceTheatre), where my responsibilities have included everything from stagehanding to grantwriting to mask-making, which has contributed to my holistic view of performance that holds awareness and takes responsibility for the theatre-making process as a whole. Aside from theatre, I am a singer-songwriter under the moniker a grim dragonwel. I recently self-produced a concept EP, My Cassette, inspired by and partially recorded on my beloved childhood tape recorder. My album-in-progress, The Year of Bad Art, is being rolled out on a monthly basis and can be listened to in its incomplete form on my bandcamp page, or you can check out the music video for each song on my YouTube channel. I also dabble in miscellaneous visual arts, including costume and mask, amateur photography, painting, and drawing. I am a graduate of Bennington College, where I studied drama and the liberal arts with a focus on acting and theatre creation. |
