Adam Seidel, a graduate of Colorado State University and a Milwaukee, WI native, has been living in Chicago for the past four years of his life.  Although Chicago can be little blistery during the winter, for Adam there is nowhere else he’d rather be.  As a professional outside the world of theater Adam has held down several different occupations, his favorites being rock concert critic/ photographer, door-to-door suburban salesman, magazine columnist and catering waiter. Within the world of theater and dramatic comedy, Adam began by stage managing and assistant directing a play titled The Jammer (2004), which went to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and won a Fringe First Award. Since then he has written and co produced several video shorts, including My Week With Tom (2008), Dad, I’m Gay (2008) and Loss of Signal (2009). As for projects on the horizon, Adam’s first written stage show, a comedic sketch revue titled Don’t Drop the Hope, will be hitting the Second City stage in January 2010. After assistant directing This Train at 16th Street Theater, he will assistant stage manage for The Lookingglass Theatre’s Hephaestus.
