Meet Tour 72: Taylor Ryan Rivers

Interview

Name and pronouns? Where are you from/currently residing?

Taylor Ryan Rivers; He/him; I'm from Vallejo, CA

What drew you to theatre?

To be honest, I wanted to be a star like Will Smith. Once I finally joined an acting camp though it was the comradery that kept me coming back to the craft.

What drew you to National Players?

A friend, and fellow National Player, encouraged me to audition and I haven't looked back since.

What are you most looking forward to on the tour?

I'm most looking forward to my work as a master electrician for the National Players. I haven't touched a lighting console all pandemic and was surprised at how much that affected me.

What do you hope to do after the tour?

After the tour, I planned to move in with my partner after spending two years doing long distance together. We're not sure where we'll go, but as long as I can keep acting and doing lighting design we can make it work.

What's something you want people to know about you?

I want people to know that they can find me on insta @riverstaylor08. I also want them to know I write a lot too.
