Nicole Capri serves as a mentor and coach for The Rep’s young artists, including those shown here: (clockwise, left to right): Joe McCurdy, Maddie Lentz, Drew Clark, Ella Moody, Abby Shourd, Marina Redlich and Price Clark (on bench).
Nicole Capri cultivates the next generation of actors at Arkansas Repertory Theatre — but her sphere of influence goes beyond the stage in the lives of her young artists.
If you ever meet Capri, resident director and director of education at the Rep, no doubt you’ll be met with a firm handshake. She’s sort of an expert on those.
In fact, a good handshake is one of the many things she teaches youth ages 10-23 during The Rep’s Summer Musical Theater Intensive (SMTI), and one example of how her work with young artists, as she calls them, goes beyond stage training to real-world, life training.
Capri considers herself a director (she’s directed and choreographed more than 100 productions) and founder of SMTI but also a drama coach, talent manager and career counselor to her young artists. In short, she’s the ultimate stage mom.
