"Hi, my name is Tessa Goodnight and I have a passion for all things interactive! It makes visual and performance art so much more enriching when the audience can be included. They evolve and the creator's story becomes their story in a life-changing experience! My love for interactive theater started at a young age when I participated in theatre and felt the joy of being part of a creative community. I went on to graduate with a BFA in acting from the Shenandoah arts conservatory.
From there I followed the man who wrote the book on interactive acting (Jeff Wirth) to Austin and took part in an amazing interactive theatre laboratory. We experimented with how interactive transforms not just artistic experiences but almost every industry you can think of! I've worked with tech developers, first responders, medical professionals, and social justice organizations. Whatever your community is working on, Interactive can help you dive deeper and gain a better understanding of the goals ahead.
I'm also available as an acting coach. I am fully trained in the Meisner technique of acting and would be happy to help you nail your audition or deepen your role. Even if you're just curious to try acting for the first time, feel free to reach out, and let's create together!"
