Rachel Carter (born c. 1976) is a theater director in the Oklahoma City drama scene. Carter's directorial efforts have won awards and garnered critical acclaim. She has recently accepted the position of Associate Artistic Director for the Oklahoma City Theatre Company. She has also just been named the program director for "The Classics Live," a touring troupe that brings classic works of drama (e.g. ''Midsummer Night's Dream'' by William Shakespeare, a dramatic adaptation of ''Beowulf'', and ''Antigone'') before a variety of audiences. ==Life and career== Rachel Lee Carter was born in Searcy, Arkansas in the mid 1970s. She began her theatrical career at Harding Academy in Searcy and continued it at Harding University, where she won female performer of the year for 1994-1995. Her early career was marked by dramatic success and multiple acting awards. After getting her BA from Harding University, she formed the Persnickety Players Drama Ministry, a small touring troupe focused on sacred drama, with Scott Hale in Oklahoma City. Her graduate degrees from Oklahoma City University (MPA) and the University of Oklahoma (MFA) focused on acting and directing respectively. She has directed and starred in dozens of plays and even written a few. The ''Oklahoma Gazette'' named the productions of ''On the Verge of the Geography of Yearning'' and ''Jacob Marley’s Christmas Carol'', both directed by Carter, to their list of Top Five dramatic events in 2003 and 2005, respectively. Carter's directorial prowess generally receives praise from local journalists and critics, though some have noted their reservations. Carter now splits her time between adjunct teaching at Oklahoma City universities, grant writing, several directing projects, and the occasional onstage appearance. She has served as Artistic Director for OKC Theatre Company since 2010 where she directs plays and oversees 6 theatre productions and the Native American New Play Festival annually. She teaches classes in UCO’s Mass Communications Department and Oklahoma City Community College’s Theatre program.〔http://www.uco.edu/la/masscomm/faculty/index.asp〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rachel Carter」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
