Theatre Credits

David's theatrical training began at Dearing Acting Studio in Phoenix, where he moved from foundational script and improv work into intensive master class productions — tackling some of American theatre's most demanding roles.

In 2023 he stepped into musical theatre, and in March 2026 he takes on a dual role with Fifth Wall Playhouse in Peoria — part of their inaugural season.
